Table 3.
Values of the Moran's I index values used to test for the presence of spatial autocorrelation in growth data (BAI, basal area increment).
| Species | BAI 2000-2011 | BAI 2012-2013 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Moran's I | Z score | P-value | Moran's I | Z score | P-value | |
| Pinus radiata | 0.0668 | 0.7112 | 0.48 | 0.1900 | 1.5792 | 0.11 |
| Castanea sativa | −0.0984 | −0.2910 | 0.77 | 0.1239 | 1.0792 | 0.28 |
| Pinus pinaster | −0.2358 | −1.4302 | 0.15 | −0.2022 | −1.1159 | 0.26 |
Z scores and P-values evaluate the significance of the index. Analysis was carried out for the period previous to defoliation (2000–2011) and for the outbreak period (2012–2013).
