Determining the climatic suitability of Eucalyptus dunnii for plantations in Australia, China and Central and South America

Climatic conditions within the natural distribution of Eucalyptus dunnii we re determined using interpolated relationships developed for Australia. Cli matic interpolation relationships for Africa, Central and South America and China as well as Australia were then used to examine locations where E. du nnii has been successfully grown in trials and to determine the species' cl imatic adaptability outside its natural range. The original climatic profil e was revised and maps were produced to show climatically suitable regions in Australia, China and Central and South America.
