Picea glauca (Moench) Voss., the white spruce, [4] is a species of spruce native to the northern temperate and boreal forests in Canada and United States, North America.. Picea glauca is native from central Alaska all through the east, across western and southern/central Canada to the Avalon Peninsula in Newfoundland, Quebec, Ontario and south to Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin ...
Site index is a term used in forestry to describe the potential for forest trees to grow at a particular location or "site". Site is defined as "The average age of dominate and/or codominate trees of an even-aged, undisturbed site of intolerant trees at a base age"; [1] furthermore, the word site is used in forestry to refer to a distinct area where trees are found. [2]
Structure and function of growth models vary: some are purely empirical, based on the reproduction of past observations, while others explicitly mimic specific processes relative to tree ecophysiology, stand dynamics, etc. Typically, growth models use forest inventory data and site characteristics, such as soil type, drainage class, average ...
Agronomic studies often focus on the above-ground part of plant biomass, and consider crop growth rates rather than individual plant growth rates. Nonetheless there is a strong corollary between the two approaches. More specifically, the ULR as discussed above shows up in crop growth analysis as well, as: = . = .
The leaves are needle-like, the shortest of any spruce, 6–8 mm long, rhombic in cross-section, dark green with inconspicuous stomatal lines. The cones are slender cylindric-conic, 5–9 cm long and 1.5 cm broad, red to purple when young, maturing dark brown 5–7 months after pollination, and have stiff, smoothly rounded scales.
Elatobium abietinum, commonly known as the spruce aphid [2] or green spruce aphid, [3] is a species of aphid in the subfamily Aphidinae that feeds on spruce (Picea spp.), and occasionally fir (Abies spp.). It is native to Northern, Central and Eastern Europe and has spread to Western Europe, North America and elsewhere.
Picea engelmannii, with the common names Engelmann spruce, [3] white spruce, [3] mountain spruce, [3] and silver spruce, [3] is a species of spruce native to western North America. Highly prized for producing distinctive tone wood for acoustic guitars and other instruments, it is mostly a high-elevation mountain tree but also appears in watered ...
