The effect of slope exposition on growth dynamics of Gmelin larch in permafrost conditions of Central Siberia. II. Specifics of tree radial growth at different heights of the stems
The research was carried on in even-aged Gmelin larch trees (Larix gmelinii (Rupr.) Rupr.), growing in permafrost conditions of the north and south facing slopes (Central Siberia, 64°19′23″N, 100°13′28″E). 13 even-aged larch trees growing in the north facing slope and 5 ones growing in south facing...
