Stand Self-thinning

Stand Self-Thinning is a natural ecological process in forest stand dynamics whereby competition for limited resources among trees of the same or similar age class leads to a gradual reduction in stand density through the mortality of suppressed individuals, thereby maintaining an allometric relationship between mean plant size and population density.
