Development of species composition in long term simulations with an individual-tree growth simulator
Journal of Forest Science, 2009 The spruce-fir-beech dominated forest stands in Litschau in the Austrian part of the Bohemian Massif were converted by former forest management practices into pure Norway spruce stands and are now discussed to be reconverted into the potential natural ...
