Effects of environmental factors and management practices on microclimate, winter physiology and frost resistance in trees.

Effects of environmental factors and management practices on microclimate, winter physiology and frost resistance in trees.

Freezing events are one of the most important limiting factors determining the ecological distribution and production of tree species. Assessment of frost risk, is therefore, critical for forestry, fruit production and horticulture. Frost risk is substantial when hazard (i.e., exposure to damaging f...
