National site-index and height-growth curves for white spruce growing in natural stands in Canada
Based on stem analyses, national site-index equations and height-growth equations for white spruce (Piceaglauca (Moench) Voss) were developed covering an area from the Yukon to Newfoundland. The objective was to construct a single set of curves for each relationship by combining all regions, instead...
