Regeneration Dynamics Following the Formation of Understory Gaps in a Slovakian Beech Virgin Forest
The frequency and size of canopy gaps largely determine light transmission to lower canopy strata, controlling structuring processes in the understory. However, quantitative data from temperate virgin forests on the structure of regeneration in gaps and its dynamics over time are scarce. We studied...
