Four well-known growth functions were initially considered in this work however only Schnute s function performed adequately. A set of 20 695 pairs of height-diameter measures collected in thinned and unthinned pure and even-aged stands were used to fit the model. These stands were located throughout Galicia Autonomous Region covering a wide range of forest stands and site conditions. Since unequal error variance occurs the generalized non-linear least squares method was used to take into account the error structure. Different weighting factors were employed to remove the heterogeneous variance of the errors. Because the local model including only tree dimensions as explanatory variables did not provide adequate results stand variables were tested and incorporated into the height-diameter model. Ecoregion differences in the heightdiameter relationship were analysed using the non-linear extra sum of squares method and the Lakkis-Jones test. Both tests showed that model parameters were significantly different between the two ecoregions normally defined for this species coast and interior. The effect of thinning was
