Size Class Distribution

Biomass Distribution

Daily mean diameter increment in mm day -1, ± 95% confidence interval, compared with mean precipitation accumulated (reported in mm day -1 ) measured for the three areas.

Daily mean diameter increment in mm day-1 by diameter class ( cm, cm and >50 cm).

Mean annual diameter growth increments observed using dendrometer bands in the three permanent plots. Negative growth rates indicate a decrease in tree diameters during the period of study.

Distribution of annual carbon accumulation in living vegetation among diameter classes for the years of measurement.

Conclusion: marked seasonal growth trees with diameter >50cm were more affected by seasons. the major accumulation C was in the smaller trees in forests experiencing a longer dry season. forests experiencing a longer dry-season have larger annual diameter growth increments for individual trees.
