Model computations on the impact of changing climate on natural regeneration of Scots pine in Finland
Based on model computations, the regeneration of Scots pine (Pinussylvestris L.) in southern (60°N) and northern (66°N) Finland was studied in relation to an elevating temperature. The temperature elevation increased flowering and the subsequent seed crop, particularly in northern Finland, with a de...
