The effects of thinning intensity and tree size on the growth response to annual climate in Cedrus atlantica: a linear mixed modeling approach

Table 4 Growth sensitivity to annual climate. Within a given crown class, values with different Latin letters differed significantly (at the 5 % probability level in a pairwise Tukey test). Within a given plot, values with different Greek letters differed significantly (at the 5 % probability level in a type I test)
