Abstract

Small, harvested openings can provide partial sunlight that would favor development of oak advance reproduction, if reproduction is present. The partial sunlight is from two sources. The edge trees will cast shade into the harvested opening. Side light also can penetrate forested edges, creating the partial light for oak regeneration and development.
