This study quantified using 4 canopy-based metrics (leaf discoloration, leaf defoliation, dieback, and overall crown stress) to see how stress varies with and . Results found that stress was associated with group and either site type and/or . Discoloration, defoliation, and dieback provided unique information on tree stress and therefore can be useful indices for tree health monitoring https://ow.ly/VXXz50Z13C4
