Spatio‐temporal structure of multi‐storied, multi‐aged interior Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. glauca) stands

Abstract: Summary1. We used replicated, repeated-measures data to examine the spatio-temporal structure of multistoried, multi-aged interior Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var glauca (Mirb.) Franco) stands growing on dry sites under more than 50 years of fire protection. Along with the univariate and bivariate Ripley's K and related functions, we used a random coefficients mixed model to investigate the variation in these functions over replicates and time. 2. The spatio-temporal analyses revealed that trees greater… Show more

“…In addition, sampling design allows integration of this dataset with other ones available from previous studies (e.g. Aguirre et al 2003;Hui and Pommerening 2014;LeMay et al 2009), useful for comparative, large-scale studies. The data allowed a traditional set of forest parameters to be extracted like stand variables (stocking rate, basal area, species composition, dominant height, mean diameter).…”

“…Extension of spatial analyses to include changes in time allows the examination of changes in stand structure due to mortality, growth, regeneration and competition (LeMay et al 2009). In this line, the relevant strength of the dataset is that it allows performing an integrated set of tree structure and diversity analyses at both spatial and temporal scales.…”

“…If objects within the spatial window are clumped, then the K-function receives higher values (K(r) > πr 2 or L(r) > 0), and if they are regularly (evenly) spaced -the K-function shows low values (K(r) < πr 2 or L(r) < 0) (Illian et al 2008;LeMay et al 2009). In the first case the typical point is a part of the cluster and has few nearest neighbors and the local density is larger than λ.…”

“…Of particular importance are changes in stand structure occurring during its various stages of development. The long life of trees, however, means that studying forest dynamics requires long-term work and analyses, repeated every several or several dozen years (Szymański 1964;Ward et al 1996;Kenkel et al 1997;Hessburg et al 2000;Woods 2000;Szmyt 2004;Wolf 2005;Saunders, Wagner 2008;LeMay et al 2009). Most research on forest dynamics has been conducted on natural forests; much less so on artificially established forests.…”
