Studies concerning the relationship between biomass and coverage in ground vegetation of a forest stand
The study deals with the relationship between biomass and coverage in ground vegetation of and forest types. The results show that the biomass of the field layer on both forest types can predict satisfactorily in both coverage values of some the most important species and groups of species. Their...

description | The study deals with the relationship between biomass and coverage in ground vegetation of and forest types. The results show that the biomass of the field layer on both forest types can predict satisfactorily in both coverage values of some the most important species and groups of species. Their total height per plot was used as independent variables. The explaining power of the models constructed for type increased to approximately 57% and for the type to approximately 74% of the total variation in the amount of dry matter. When the biomass of the bottom layer was predicted using the same kind of variables, the explaining power for the type increased to approximately 35% of the total variation and for the type approximately 53% of the total variation in the amounts of dry matter. The models for field layer of both and types were quite well suited for describing the test material. In the case of the bottom layer, the constructed models were not suitable for describing the test material.VacciniumCallunaVacciniumCallunaVacciniumCalluna VacciniumCalluna |
