Abstract

A number of different research approaches have been used to investigate the influence of tree species on the particular ecological parameters in mixed forest stands. While it is widely recognized that trees have species-specific effects on particular resources like radiation, water and nutrients more interacting effects of mixtures are assumed to exist. In this paper we examine the spatial variation of humus mass in a mixed stand and discuss the influence of specific spatial factors on humus mass variation.
