- Abstract:
- Proposal to analyze patterns of needle and bud mortality by measuring winter stress resistance of needles and buds in natural red spruce populations over the nearly entire elevational range of the species on five mountains in northern New York State and central to western New England, while at the same time measuring altitudinal and geographic variation in summer and winter microclimate, the intensity of winter temperature stress, and levels of needle and bud mortality.
