Abstract
Four theoretical growth functions, Mitscherlich, Logistic, Gompertz and Korf functions, were applied to the growth data on dbh and tree height of individual Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus) trees to model their growth. The current increments, mean increments and relative growth rates of dbh and height as functions of age were given by derivation from the best fit growth functions. The growth processes of dbh and height were divided into three periods by the inflexion points of the corresponding current increment curves.
