  • Limitations to Seedling Regeneration on Tropical Forest Restoration Plantations in Northern Thailand

    Creator:
    Sangsupan, Hathai A.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation investigated potential ecological limitations to seedling regeneration in young, seasonally dry, evergreen forest restoration plantations in northern Thailand. We explored whether recruitment of colonizing tree species in the restoration plantations can be attributed to seed dispersal mode (i.e. abiotic or animal dispersal) and seed size. We did this...
