The response of trees varied with treatment, tree species and measurement parameter. In general, sugar maple trees had a positive response to Ca addition (e.g., increasing their radial growth) and a negative response to Al treatment (e.g., showing increased root damage). In contrast, beech experienced no benefit from Ca addition, and showed a recent positive response (e.g., increased growth) to Al addition.
