Abstract
A two-step regression procedure was used to predict the impact of throughfall chemistry on the defoliation of Fagus sylvatica L. over a 10-year-monitoring period at three plots in northern Belgium. The impact of throughfall chemistry on crown condition was examined after accounting for influences of site, stand, climate and diseases. In a first step, defoliation was regressed on site, stand, climate and disease parameters. The residual defoliation of this standard set was correlated with 27 throughfall variables.
