Gap dynamics of late successional sugar maple-yellow birch forests at their northern range limit

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

QuestionsWe investigated whether the gap disturbance rate (percentage area disturbed by canopy gaps per year) differed at the northern range limit of sugar maple (Acer saccharum)-yellow birch (Betula alleghaniensis) forests compared to broad-leaf temperate deciduous forests located more to the south. As an ancillary question, we assessed the relationship between species composition and gap disturbance rate at the stand scale.LocationLate successional sugar maple-yellow birch forests at their northern range limit in western Quebec, Canada.MethodsTo reconstruct past gap disturbances, we identified growth releases using the boundary line method applied to tree-ring chronologies obtained from 0,25-ha plots sampled within 11 late successional forest stands. We reconstructed past canopy gaps using release events, calculated historical gap disturbance rates and used redundancy analysis to evaluate the relationship between gap disturbance rate and species composition at the stand scale.ResultsThe mean gap di
