Below-and above ground biomass distribution of young Scots pines from plantations and natural stands
Özet
The belowground and aboveground biomass development of plantations and natural stands of young Scots pines (Pinus sylvestris) in
the same habitat was modeled. 20 individuals having different diameters at breast-height were chosen from each group. Using the data
obtained from those individuals, the biomass values of tree components (stem wood, stem bark, branch wood, branch bark, needle,
stump wood, stump bark, root wood and root bark) were calculated. Furthermore, the relationships between the stem volume and tree
components biomass were modeled. The portions of tree components weight in total weight were bilaterally examined. As a result of
that analysis, it has been found that, although the total biomass development of young trees taken from plantations and natural stands
followed a similar course, there were significant differences in the development of tree components.
