Effects of light exposure in freezing temperatures on winter damage to foliage of Norway spruce container seedlings in mid and late winter: Pilot experiments in an open field

Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) is widely planted for reforestation in the boreal zone. It is sensitive to frost and high irradiance during the growing season, and also to winter damage, which cause growth losses in reforestation. This study made a pilot attempt to examine the needle damage...
