Thus it is possible that storm damage is not relateddirectly to low soil pH, but is only more frequent in stands witha high proportion of coniferous ... effects on storm damage in alogistic regression model with “base saturation” instead of “soilpH”. Also, storm damage occurred more frequently on siteswith low base saturation. However, our response...
