Growth of trees in secondary forest
Secondary forest is a forest regenerates in through natural processing after human disturbance. Objective of this study was to investigate growth rate of tree species in a secondary forest. This study was carried out in 10 established plots of 50 × 20 m at Nurwana Forest, a 16-year-old logged-over f...
