Knowing the natural patterns and site demands of species is a good guide
and can reveal the ecological characteristics of species to solve many
problems in managing of forest lands, such as reforestation and
rehabilitation of damaged areas. In this book, we analyzed the spatial
patterns of three Quercus species (Quercus brantii, Q. infectoria and Q.
libani) by univariate spatial analysis of trees and finding out the
relationship between environmental characteristics and distribution of
these studied oak species, at the less destroyed areas in the northern
Zagros region of Iran.
