metsänkasvuun
Metsänkasvu refers to the process of forest development and the increase in the volume of wood within a forest over time. It encompasses the growth of individual trees, the regeneration of new trees, and the overall expansion and maturation of the forest ecosystem. This growth is influenced by a complex interplay of biological, environmental, and management factors.
Key biological drivers of metsänkasvu include photosynthesis, where trees convert sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into
Environmental conditions are paramount. Sufficient rainfall, appropriate temperatures, and adequate sunlight are essential for photosynthesis and
Forest management practices, or metsänhoito, are designed to influence and optimize metsänkasvu. These can include silvicultural
