Open canopy conditions in southeastern pine (Pinus spp).

We measured trees representing the full range of ages, stand densities, canopy conditions and landscape positions.

However, increased crop tree growth from site preparation may shorten open canopy conditions.

This occult water is therefore an important input to the canopy, sustaining the epiphytes, mosses and other species that depend on wet canopy conditions.

Periodic clipping of the understory vegetation marginally reduced tree seedling mortality, but only in experimental gaps, where understory vegetation cover was greatly enhanced compared to intact canopy conditions.

Treatments were arranged in a randomized block design in two landscape positions (dry upland, moist lowland) and two canopy conditions (gap, no gap).

Thus our model significantly improved the performance in simulating sparse vegetation ET and can be used to estimate daily surface resistance under the partial canopy condition.

Non-linear threshold responses in canopy condition in these species may be linked to rooting depth, with chronic groundwater decline decoupling trees from deep soil moisture resources.

Of the single year measurements, total LAI measured in 1999 was significantly related to damage, while 2000 and 2001 LAI accounted for progressively less of the variation in damage, indicating a change in canopy condition between seasons.
