Application of Life-Table Analyses to Tree Seedlings in Quetico Provincial Park, Ontario

Abstract
Data for numbers of living seedlings by 2-year age-classes under old-growth forests permit examination of life-table analysis as a tool for following seedling population relationships. The population depletion curves for white pine, balsam fir and red maple are compared. The negative exponential depletion model is demonstrated as a potentially sensitive method for quantita -tive comparison of silvical response characteristics.
