Introduced tree species have become increasingly important in the context of the ongoing climate change. This paper focuses on the dendrochronology of the most widespread introduced tree species in the British Isles – Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis [Bong.

Effects of phenotypic selection on height-diameter ratio of Norway spruce and Scots pine in Sweden
Genetically improved Norway spruce ( (L.) Karst.) and Scots pine ( L.) are extensively used in operational Swedish forestry plantations. However, relatively little is known about the stem slenderness (height-diameter ratio) of genetically improved ...

Nutrient dynamic of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L) Karst) litter mixed with litter of Beech (Fagus orientalis lipsky), Alder (Alnus subcordata C.A.Meyer) and Maple (Acer velutinum Boiss.) in pure Norway spruce plantation of Lajim site [PDF]
Plant litter decomposition plays an important role in forest soil fertility due to nutrient cycling and soil organic matter formation. Litter decomposition, results in return of leaves nutrient to soil and supply of necessary elements for plant growth ...
