RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ENVIRONMENTAL PARAMETERS AND PINUS SYLVESTRIS L. SITE INDEX IN FOREST PLANTATIONS IN NORTHERN SPAIN ACIDIC PLATEAU

Relationship between environmental parameters and Pinus sylvestris L. site index in forest plantations in northern Spain acidic plateau

The assessment of forest productivity at early stages of stand development may help to define the most appropriate silviculture treatment to be applied for each stand.Site index (dominant height at a reference age) is a useful tool for forest productivity estimation.The aim of this study was to develop a model to predict site index for Scots pine (
