“…it would be worth to note that we did not develop temporal series, which could be considered as a limitation from a methodological perspective (Burkart and Tomé, 2012). In addition, the range of top heights predicted by the best-ranked climatetopography models at age 90 (among-plot variation around the intercept) covers that informed in other works at similar ages (Caselli, 2020;Goya et al, 2004;Loguercio et al, 2018). Because predictors were centered, the estimate for the intercept (≈17 m) indicates top height at the base age under average environmental conditions.…”
