The 14 pages that link to Lichenometry, each with the reason it gives.

• LichenRelated: Lichen growth can help estimate when rocks or landforms were exposed.

• MycobiontRelated: Mycobiont-controlled thallus growth underlies the method’s size measurements.

• IsidiumRelated: Isidia can influence thallus expansion, although lichenometry relies chiefly on thallus size.

• SorediumRelated: Soredial dispersal can affect how and where lichen colonies establish on dated surfaces.

• Fruticose lichenRelated: Its best-known applications use crustose lichens, highlighting a contrast with branching fruticose growth.

• UsneaCompared with: Unlike species identification, lichenometry uses growth measurements to estimate elapsed time.

• ParmeliaceaeRelated: Some Parmeliaceae are used to estimate how long surfaces have been exposed.

• Cetraria islandicaRelated: Lichen growth offers a way to study the age of surfaces in habitats where the species occurs.

• Cladonia rangiferinaRelated: Cladonia rangiferina and related lichens can help date surfaces in northern landscapes.

• Erik AchariusRelated: It illustrates a later scientific use of lichens beyond the classification Acharius pursued.

• LecanoralesRelated: Growth patterns in some Lecanorales lichens help date exposed rocks and archaeological surfaces.

• Lobaria pulmonariaRelated: Lungwort is a conspicuous lichen, though its variable growth limits simple age estimates.

• Parmotrema perlatumRelated: Lichen growth has uses beyond food, including dating exposed surfaces.

• Pseudevernia furfuraceaRelated: Growth of lichens on rocks and bark links this species to studies of colonized surfaces.
