Popis: | (...) This study assessed tree growth and elemental tissue concentrations in a slash pine (Pinus elliottii Engelm.) plantation treated 16 yr previously with four rates (0, 112, 224, 448 Mg ha −1 ) of municipal garbage composted with sewage sludge. Tree growth was significantly greater where garbage compost was applied. Stem wood biomass increased from 55.7 to 94.7 Mg ha −1 , a 1.7-fold increase over the control for the heaviest garbage application rate. (...) |
