Abstract: Canopy dynamics are important in understanding the mechanisms regulating forest production and transition, and maintenance of forest biodiversity. The canopy is the place where important physiological processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, and transpiration occur, and it affects the primary forest production. Canopy dynamics include 3 types of changes: canopy changes caused by insect infestations, diseases, fires, and others; gap dynamics caused by strong winds like typhoons or hurricane... More
