Initial density effect on Eucalyptus globulus growth in a Nelder modified trial

Abstract: The effect of initial planting density on the growth and wood density of Eucalyptus globulus was examined in a trial established in the southeast of Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. A modified Nelder design was used to generate 9 planting densities ranging from 582 to 2.083 trees/ha. The effect of planting density on diameter at breast height, total tree height, basal area, relative bark thickness and wood density was studied over a 10-year period. By reducing the initial density of planting to 761 trees/ha, … Show more

“…While the exact nature of the land use in past centuries is also unknown, the presence of old stone walls and stables suggests that it was previously used as livestock pasture. The forest above GUI is now dominated by planted eucalyptus trees (replacing the native Quercus), which are <90 years old based on trunk diameters (Ferrere et al, 2005). Importantly, the roots of the eucalyptus can be seen infiltrating the roof of the cave, and this may be reflected in d 13 C and d 18 O records.…”

“…1). The Eucalyptus tree ages are estimated to be around 60 years old, based on measurements of the stem diameter and empirical approximation by Ferrere et al (2005). Additionally, based on the observed presence of charcoaled trees and regional agriculture history (Carrión et al, 2010; Carracedo et al, 2018), the parts of the land currently open or covered with fern ( Polypodiopsida ) likely were exposed to fire activity.…”
