Shares of the 10% tallest and 10% smallest trees at stand volume growth (iv). Dry years (2003, 2015) and wet years (2001, 2007) are highlighted. a For Norway spruce the share of the 10% smallest trees of the total stand growth varies between 0.5% and 3.0%, and increases in dry years as 2003 and 2015. The share of the 10% tallest varies between 20% and 30% and decreases in dry years. b For European beech the share of the 10% smallest trees of the total stand growth varies between 0.5% and 1.0%. The share of the 10% tallest trees varies between 30% and 40%, the reactions on drought are less pronounced than for spruce
