Effect of Tree Size Heterogeneity on the Overall Growth Trend of Trees in Coniferous Forests of the Tibetan Plateau

Tree growth is under the combined influence of abiotic and biotic factors. Trees with different sizes may respond differently to these factors, implying that tree size heterogeneity may also modulate the overall growth trend. To test this hypothesis, we focused on the radial growth trends of natural...
