Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We assessed the undesired forest management in terms of natural regeneration, multi-storied forests, line thinning and selection of restocking species by reviewing previous studies and experimental tryouts in the national forests. As the results, we could illustrate the undesired forest management systematically by summarizing the previous cases into a condition- procedure matrix or a decision flow diagram as follows; 1) Natural regeneration of broadleaved timber species is almost impossible in the warm temperate region, 2) Multi-storied forest management with heavy thinning cannot be economically successful irrespective to natural regeneration or artificial planting. 3) Line thinning applied to the stand with large variations of pre-thinning tree size could cause the loss economic value of thinned stands and unimproved competition status. 4) Numerical predictions could provide decision support information for selection of management methods precisely and objectively.
