STUDIES OF SURFACE VEGETATION AND NATURAL REGENERATION IN A MATURE SCOTS PINE WOOD IN ABERDEENSHIRE

W. M. MCNEILL

Department of Forestry, University of Aberdeen

Observations and data are recorded regarding the changes which take place in the composition and pattern of the surface vegetation immediately following regeneration fellings in a 75-to 85-year-old plantation, composed principally of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.). The study covers a period of 5 years, 1946 to 1950. During the same period all natural regeneration of tree species was charted and counted and the results are given. The wood selected for the study was one where it was known that natural regeneration was difficult to obtain. The soil and site factors in the area examined are similar to those in many artificially formed coniferous plantations in the north-east of Scotland.
