Density and stand development Thinning changes the density initially but also the development with time After thinning the density approaches full density (self-thinning limit) growth thinning self-thinning biomass soil carbon mortality decomposition CO 2 density
Forest growth Potential NPP controls growth rate and equilibrium biomass
