"This paper compares the present break-up of mountain spruce stands in the Bohemian Forest (in the Protected Landscape Area \u0160umava) with conditions during their initiation using dendrochronological techniques. Stands were recently broken up by the windstorm. The present situation was described by diameter and decay class distribution. To describe the situation by stand initiation, we cored at least 40 stems on each plot to get the age structure and growth series of trees. Disturbances were marked by discovering synchronous releases on tree-ring series. Main population waves were initiated in association with severe disturbances during a relatively short period, leading to the establishment of relatively even-aged, homogeneous looking stands. Detected majorThe disturbances were synchronized between plots and accounted for by historical known windstorms or bark beetle outbreaks; notwithstanding harvesting logging as a disturbance factor is also particularly possible." .
