Hourly changes in stem size (from a zeroed start point on January 15th, 2012) in the thinned (black) and unthinned (grey) trees at Flynn until the end of April 2012. Total daily rainfall at the site is shown by black bars. Note the marked responses to rainfall on 28th February and 15th March at both sites. Note also that in unthinned plots there was no net increment until the rainfall of 14th February, while the thinned plots growth was continuous over the same period
