Abstract:Stand structure, a fundamental part of forests, has generally been well studied, but it has not been fully explored as influenced by thinning and recovery intervals. Thus, four treatments, control (CK), light thinning (LT), moderate thinning (MT), and heavy thinning (HT), were applied to explore the spatial structural dynamics after thinning from 2019 to 2022. In this study, stand spatial structure represented by four structural parameters: uniform angle index, mingling index, neighborhood comparison index and… Show more
