Množství a výšková struktura odrostlého zmlazení v horském smrkovém lese Hrubého Jeseníku

Original language description

Large-scale disturbances such as windthrows and bark beetle outbreaks influenced recently extensive areas of the mountain spruce forests in Central Europe. Currently, there are concerns about the forest management in relation to the ability of their recovery and resilience, in the conservation areas especially. The purpose of this study was to quantify the amount and height structure of the advanced regeneration (more than 0,5 m in height and less than 10 cm in diameter) potentially surviving the severe wind or bark-beetle disturbance in the natural mountain spruce forest in the Hrubý Jeseník Mts. (Czech Republic). We also tested the relationship of spruce regeneration with stand structure and physiographic factors. We collected data at 27 circular 1000 m2 plots. The trees were divided into three height categories. On 93% (25) of plots we found a sufficient number (i.e. more than 250 individuals per ha) of advanced regeneration needed for maintaining the continuity of the forest (excluding seedlings
