Other claims from this paper (9)
- Association Fertilization response varied with stand variables, application rates, tree social status and crown traits.
- Association Greater crown ratio increased height growth responses.
- Association Greater dominance decreased diameter growth.
- Association Greater crown ratio decreased diameter growth.
- Intervention effect Fertilization effect on diameter growth peaked three years after application.
- Intervention effect Fertilization effect on height growth peaked six years after application.
- Intervention effect Fertilization increased overall mortality rate.
- Intervention effect Fertilization ameliorated mortality for suppressed and steady-growing trees.
- Recommendation Authors recommend tree-level modeling to improve growth and yield prediction after fertilization.
