Quantifying the effects of competition on the dimensions of Scots pine and Norway spruce crowns

Inter-tree competition can be assessed using relatively simple indices derived from tree diameters, heights and locations, but they have often been found to be deficient for predicting tree growth. To better understand these linkages, we measure dimensions of Scots pine and Norway spruce crowns, whi...
