Mind the gaps: Comparison of representative vs opportunistic assessment of tree regeneration in Central European beech forests

2021-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Tree regeneration (TR) in canopy gaps is a key process to understand how forest ecosystems might adapt to future environmental changes. Since successful TR is the result of a complex interplay of several stochastic events such as gap formation, seed production, ungulate pressure and diseases, some of the processes have been neglected or strongly reduced for model applications. Most empirical data on TR originate f...
