Martin Mucha: Effect of the temperate forest structure on forest dynamics. A main goal of the study was examination of the effect of the two temperate coppice forest structures, micro-relief and nutrient content of soil on coppice dynamics. Rich literature on coppice forests was studied before a literature list has been compiled. In practical part of the study, increment cores and soil samples were taken from oak and hornbeam trees on 46 experimental forest plots owned by Istanbul University. Based on radial increments measured, statistically significant effect of management-based structure, mic-rorelief and soil nutrient content in a soil was examined. The main increment of trees growing on top plateau was significantly higher than increment of trees growing on south and north-facing slopes. The main increment of coppice with uneven structure (abandoned coppice) was significantly different from actively managed coppice oak stands. In addition, effect of different soil nutrient content was not significant.
