Annual Growth of Salix arctica in the High-Arctic

A study of the dry weights and ages of 57 Salix arctica plants growing in a higharctic region shows that their annual relative growth-rate, which decreases with age, is about one-fifth of the annual relative growth-rate of comparable plants under temperate conditions. Data on the thickness of annual...
