Correlación de caracteres de la copa y de tasas de crecimiento en bosques de Puerto Rico

Crown diameter, crown depth, crown area, crown volume, tree dbh and tree height measured in 1975 were found to correlate in several instances with previous periodic annual diameter increment through linear regressions in uneven-aged, species-rich stands in Puerto Rico. The relationship between crown...

Description
Summary:Crown diameter, crown depth, crown area, crown volume, tree dbh and tree height measured in 1975 were found to correlate in several instances with previous periodic annual diameter increment through linear regressions in uneven-aged, species-rich stands in Puerto Rico. The relationship between crown and bole diameters for four canopy species in dry and moist limestone forests, and a wet montane forest were found to be linear Ratios decreased from xerophytic through montane and rainforest habitats in Puerto Rico and Dominica.
