Intro:
Stand growth is the outcome of a complex interaction of age, site and stand density (17). Other factors kept constant the last one being a function of number of trees, their size and their spatial distribution affects the growth rate of the stand (5). Stand density can be expressed in terms of tree material measurable through volume, basal area, number of trees, or crown closure (11). Of all these, the basal area has been considered the best measure of stand density on account of its easy computation and application (8, 25).
