Abstract
The productivity of a stand of Salix glauca at 68° N in Arctic Norway was investigated. The biomass was 18.4 t ha−1 and the annual production was 1.34–1.56 t ha−1 year−1. These low values are attributed to the short growing season. The mean age of the stems was 23.4 years. The prostrate-ascending growth form of the plants is regarded as an adaptation to the severe winter climate.
