The growth of canopy trees and gap dynamics of the Korean-pine forests
长白山红松阔叶林林冠木竞争生长及林冠空隙动态研究

The paper analyzed the relationships between tree crown overlapping and ring radical growth based on ring materials of canopy trees.The dynamics of gap focus formation was studied through disturbance release analysis of gap frontier trees.There are negative relationships between theoretical crown overlap rates and ring radical growth.There are various competitive and cooperative relations among various tree species.Most gaps formed in 2 or 3 gap focus formation periods except a few small gaps which formed i...
