Canopy tree development and undergrowth bamboo dynamics in old-growth Abies-Betula forests in southwestern China: a 12-year study (2004, background): “Tree mortality rates were also size-dependent, a pattern identified in some (e.g. Nakshizuka, 1991, Nakashizuka et al., 1992; Runkle, 2000; Miura et al., 2001) but not all (e.g. Lieberman and Lieberman, 1987; Greene et al., 1992) forests.”
Disturbances prevent stem size‐density distributions in natural forests from following scaling relationships (2003, background): “For example, a U-shaped mortality curve was reported from 4 ha of Thai tropical rain forest (Marod et al. 1999), and also from 4 ha of Japanese evergreen forest ( Miura et al. 2001 ).”
