SIZE‐CLASS STRUCTURE OF THREE STREAMSIDE FORESTS

Abstract

Analysis of size‐class distribution in three streamside forest stands in central Illinois shows close agreement of observed data with the negative power curve model of tree size‐class distribution. However, examination of the size‐class distribution of selected species reveals a number of deviations from the model. Most of the deviations from the model can be explained in terms of disease and land use.
