The altitude, latitude and longitude are 85 m. above sea level, 36o, 30` North and 52o, 5` east, respectively. Average annual rainfall is 840 mm. Average daily and absolute maximum and minimum air temperature are 15.8, 36 and - 8oC, respectively. The measured tree parameters were: Survival, height, diameter and stem quality. The data statistical analysis was made, using the measurement in 2003. The SPSS software and t- test were used for the data analysis. The best species in view point of survial, diameter, height and quality were E. camaldulensis, E. viminalis and E. saligna (both parameters), respectively.
