<br />nual radial increment averaged <2 mm for
<br />both reaches. Average canopy vigor for the
<br />two reaches also was low (most trees had
<br />betwf'en 20~ and 60% of potential canopy),
<br />and the percentage of dead trees was high
<br />
<br />(31% and 21%, respectively). Radial growth
<br />at the supplemented.flow reach was high
<br />(4.2 mm). but canopy vigor was low and
<br />dead trees were relatively abundant.
