Does Slope Aspect Affect the Aboveground Tree Shape and Volume Allometry of European Beech (<i>Fagus sylvatica</i> L.) Trees?

Does Slope Aspect Affect the Aboveground Tree Shape and Volume Allometry of European Beech (<i>Fagus sylvatica</i> L.) Trees?

In mountainous or hilly areas, the slope aspect affects the amount of solar radiation, with direct consequences on species distribution and tree growth. However, little is known on how the tree shape and volume allometry may be affected by contrasting environmental conditions driven by the slope asp...
