Black spruce trees were initially hand sown in greenhouses in 1992 then transplanted and planted at 2m-2m spacing in 1994. Before the establish- ment of the warming experiment, competitor woody species were removed annually to normalize competi- tive growth constraints, but all vegetation was allowed to establish and grow after the experiment was started.; elevation queried from lat lon using R geonames::GNstrm3
