Self-thinning dynamics in cork oak woodlands: providing a baseline for managing density

Self-thinning dynamics in cork oak woodlands: providing a baseline for managing density

Aim of study: The study aims to evaluate the maximum potential stocking level in cork oak (Quercus suber L.) woodlands, using the ecologically-based size-density relationship of the self-thinning law. Area of study: The study area refers to cork oak forests in mainland Portugal, distributed along i...
