The legacy of disturbance on individual tree and stand-level aboveground biomass accumulation and stocks in primary mountain Picea abies forests
Original language description
Disturbances, both natural and human induced, influence forest dynamics, ecosystem functioning, and ecosystem services. Here, we aim to evaluate the consequences of natural disturbances on the magnitude and dynamics of tree- and stand-level biomass accumulation from decadal to centennial scales. We use tree-ring data from 2301 trees and biometric data from 4909 trees sampled in 96 plots (each 1000 m(2)) to quantify the influence of mixed severity disturbance regimes on annual aboveground biomass increment (AGBI) and total aboveground biomass accumulation (AGB) across a mountainous monotypic Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) primary forest. We hypothesise that the multiple internal and external factors constraining tree growth will cause differences in tree and stand-level biomass trajectories in these natural forests.Although we found that tree-level AGB growth increases with tree size, we also found that tree age and disturbance legacies plays a crucial role for AGB in the investigated Norway
