Twenty-eight sample plots (20x20m) were installedto cover the whole range of substrate varianeation at the sites. The expected height of a treeof 25 cm dbh (estimated in a previous re-search), basal area per ha and total height ofeach plot were used and compared as paraelmeters of site production. The forest showeddifferences in growth among sites. Sites withgentler slopes, the highest Al saturation, Fe,and P, and the lowest concentration of bases,Cu, Mn, and Zn, and a content of sand besetween 40 and 50% had the highest yield. ~ferruginea, growing under acid soil condiprevia),tions, was capable to accumulate 18.7 m2!hawith 475-485 trees/ha >10 cm dbh. The resultsconfirm the adaptation of this species to acidsoil conditions and reveal its capacity to bemore productive than other species under indiente,creasing soil acidity and decreasing nutrientavailability. 2001 artículo científico 0377-9424 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=43625205 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=436 Agronomía Costarricense application/pdf Universidad de Costa Rica Agronomía Costarricense (Costa Rica) Num.2 Vol.25 |
