I AM A UNIVERSITY STUDENT IN NEW BRUNSWICK, CANADA LOOKING FOR SOME
INFORMATION ON THE GROWTH RESPONSE OF PICEA MARIANA (BLACK SPRUCE) OR ANY
OTHER PICEA SPECIES.  MORE SPECIFICALLY I AM INTERESTED IN THE EFFECT THAT
CUTTING OFF THE PORTION OF THE TREE ABOVE EIGHT (8) METERS WILL HAVE ON
FUTURE GROWTH.  DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT EFFECT THIS WILL HAVE ?  IS THIS A
STANDARD PRACTICE IN SOME PARTS OF THE WORLD ?  DOES ANYONE HAVE INFORMATION
ABOUT THE CHANGE IN YIELD (M3/TREE) THAT THIS MIGHT CREATE ?

THANKS FOR THE HELP,    A.  GOURLEY
