Climatic factors controlling radial growth and formation of wood density fluctuations in Austrocedrus chilensis in Valdivia, Chile
Tree-ring widths and intrannual wood density fluctuations (IADFs) are sound proxies of the environmental factors that control the growth of forest tree species. In this work we evaluated the impact of climate on radial growth and IADFs formation in an Austrocedrus chilensis plantation in Valdivia, C...

Tree-ring widths and intrannual wood density fluctuations (IADFs) are sound proxies of the environmental factors that control the growth of forest tree species. In this work we evaluated the impact of climate on radial growth and IADFs formation in an Austrocedrus chilensis plantation in Valdivia, Chile.
