Abstract: While the physical factors of climate and soils generally provide a good growing environment for many tree species in New Zealand, certain climatic conditions can also result in damage to forests. The most notable of these conditions are wind, snow, and frost. Fire is also considered to be a climatic risk as its behaviour is highly dependent on weather and climate.
