New publications of the Chair of Silviculture on the natural regeneration of Sessile oak

Foto: J. Bauhus The natural regeneration of Sessile oak: many factors are decisive for success. New publications of the Chair of Silviculture underline the importance of the factors seed supply, light, competition and their silvicultural control. At the same time, the studies identify considerable knowledge deficits regarding the interaction of the most important factors influencing regeneration.
