Overall, measurements of aboveground biomass, soil carbon, and stand structure indicate that the early and mid successional stands are becoming more similar to the mature stand and that microsite differences within the braided, riparian stream systems are small.
What does the forest look like visually? what is the proportion of small to large trees? is there a tree canopy with a shrub layer underneath, or is the understory.
When disturbances destroy great part of the stand, many young individuals establish on the cleared place. With the stand aging, these saplings deplete the limiting resources and impede the new seedling establishment.
From the combination of climax or successional populations in a stand and the distributions of these combination on environmental gradients, three types of forest are recognized: (1) climax lodgepole; (2) climax spruce-fir, which is pioneered after disturbance by lodgepole; and (3) climax spruce-fir which is pioneered primarily by spruce.
The lack of information on the responses of early-successional stands to silviculture was the impetus for the establishment of sicomp. The three major objectives of the study are to: (1) quantify the growth and yield response of early-successional stands in central maine to varying intensities of silviculture.
Communities are dynamic and change over time, and we can observe this process with particular clarity after a disturbance or on new land.

Virtually every stand we sampled had some indication of past fire: even-aged size-class structure of seral species, charred material on the ground, burned-out stumps and snags, charcoal in the soil profile, and fire-marred boles (usually the exception-evidence indicated a high proportion of stand-replacing fires).
To evaluate the trajectory of structural and successional development in forests and examine their potential contribution to ecosystem resilience, we used long-term data to examine species composition, horizontal spatial structure and vertical stratification changes of a relict mesophytic hardwood stand and two stands that were partially.

The basal area of the canopy was greater than the understory for all three forests, and peaked in the immature forest, where it was twofold higher than in the young forest and 50% higher than in the late successional forest the average density of canopy trees was significantly higher in young and immature forests (about 50%) than in the late successional forest, whereas young and immature forests did not significantly differ.
We analyzed correlations among leaf traits and stand age, species successional status, and pca-derived axes of stand biomass and structure and soil texture.
By the stand and, therefore, have the potential to be-come quality early successional habitat. Old field habitat is the stage of plant successional be-tween cultivated fields and forest and is found on abandoned pastureland and retired crop fields.

Forest succession has been reported in forest plantations in tropical forests, but little is known about their successional dynamics because most studies have focused on succession in secondary forests. We assessed changes in species composition and stand structure in secondary and plantation forests in kakamega rainforest in western kenya.
Moreover, stand composition and development of these forests have never been studied in the context of environmental gradients. This study aims to integrate and clarify the accumulated knowledge about the successional pattern, stand structure and regeneration in the studied territory.
Projects designed to display the structure of a functional unit of land cover are termed stand level visualizations. The next stage of visualization used in the yellowstone effort was actually a mixed-scale approach, using vegetation objects to visualize forest structure between a landscape and stand level of detail.
Seral communities or seral stage – in succession, communities or stages which comes in between pioneer community and climax community is called.
Early successional habitat occurs in a forest after a disturbance such as a fallen tree, wind, or fire. This stage in forest land lasts only briefly; however, as the canopy, without management, will close, and the ear-ly successional vegetation will disappear in favor of a more mature forest.

A stand is a contiguous, distinguishable group of trees with a relatively uniform age distribution, composition, structure, and soil condition (helms 1998). The change in a stand’s appearance with time has been long noticed, and historically described as “succession.
Goals / objectives 1) to locate remaining examples of the least disturbed (oldest) forests on selected ecosystem types; 2) to examine their species compositions and stand structures, and compare them with mature (second-growth) forests on similar sites; and 3) to predict the potential successional trajectoroies of these forests in the future.
The results of this analysis should aid management decisions by providing a method for classifying stands according to their successional status, and may suggest alternative stand dynamics models by which aspen may be maintained on the landscape.

This review summarizes early stand-scale studies of pristine forest structures, disturbance regimes and successional patterns carried out in boreal eurasia. We attempt to reveal, characterize and classify stand dynamic types that can be used as templates for nature-based forest management.
In the following sections, the relevance of each stand element and its associated attributes is discussed in detail.

Into 9 successional classes based upon the size, canopy cover, and species composition of trees within a forested stand. Ecological condition (either current or historic) is based on the percentage of a biophysical setting in each successional class for a given landscape.
Ecological succession is the process of change in the species structure of an ecological community over time. The time scale can be decades (for example, after a wildfire), or even millions of years after a mass extinction.
An old-growth structure index (ogsi) to characterize the degree of old-growth structure (“old-growthiness” cali - brated by potential vegetation type) that occurs in a stand of any age or history, for use in mapping and monitoring in the plan area. Two definitions for late successional/old growth were then created: ogsi 80 (structural conditions.
Each stand followed a different successional pathway to an old-growth condition, and both modern stands are following different pathways. We suggest that the former stands were initiated by a stand-replacement fire, and that postfire douglas-fir (pseudotsuga menziesii(mirb. ) franco) domi- nance was limited by competition with other tree species.
Apr 4, 2016 these phases are: (i) stand initiation, (ii) stem exclusion, (iii) understory reinitiation, and (iv) steady state.
Variation in old-growth-forest structure strongly suggests that low to moderate disturbance during the life of the stands has had an important influence on stand structure. The study provides a basis for defining and taking inventory of old-growth conditions as well as for managing the natural diversity of old-growth and earlier successional.
Succession is the natural replacement of plant or each stage of succession creates the conditions for changes, in the structure and function of the stand.
A clearcut is an example of a stand replacing disturbance that resets the successional process to the beginning. Many different tree and other plants species will occupy the site, but the early successional dominants, such as pin cherry, birch and aspen will form the early canopy.

Changes in tree species richness, stand structure and soil properties in a successional chronosequence in northern chiloé island, chile.
In this paper, the relationship between stand mortality and successional composition is examined using forest inventory data from the state of michigan (usa). Mortality was quantified as the annual percentage of basal area lost to mortality, and successional composition was quantified using a continuous variable that reflects the successional status of each of the component tree species.
Stand structure prior to settlement by non-indigenous peoples is poorly understood. However, because structure depends on successional age and stand-initiating disturbances occurred in the past and present, the range of stand structures was likely similar to today (although there are likely proportionately fewer young and more old stands today).

Through an integrated reconstructive approach employing stand-level pollen stratigraphies, tree ring chronologies, and long-term archival records, we show how the characteristic structure and composition of old-growth forests in southern new england developed in four stands through a history of anthropogenic and natural disturbance, rather than.
Second-growth forests, with different stand successional stages, have developed as a result of logging over the past 50 years. Forest cover and stand structure changed greatly with concomitant degradation of forest ecosystem functions.
This method allows to establish comparisons based on soil composition, stand structure, micro- and macrofossil remains from sites of different ages but on similar edaphic and topographic conditions. In the boreal forest, post-fire succession through time is triggered by climate, disturbance history (insect epidemics, fire and logging), latitude.
