Table 2 Descriptive statistics of the standardised basal area increment (BAI) chronologies for the periods 1970–1987 and 1989–2006 corresponding to the control (CO), light thinning (LT) and heavy thinning (HT) treatments. Rbt Mean correlation between trees, EPS expressed population signal, MS mean sensitivity, AC first-order autocorrelation coefficient

From: Effects of thinning intensity on radial growth patterns and temperature sensitivity in Pinus canariensis afforestations on Tenerife Island, Spain
