A Consideration of the Constancy of Biomass Density in Plant Populations Undergoing Self-Thinning

The constancy of biomass density was considered in an entire plant population p by combining two adjacent populations p1 and p2 for which the self-thinning rule is assumed to be satisfied independently and each biomass density is also assumed to be the same constant value. Under these assumptions, the biomass density d in a population p was formulated as d=c((km−α
