Following the 1995 mast year, we conducted detailed seedling demography surveys to characterize some ecological factors affecting germination and early establishment in understory balsam fir (Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.) seedling banks and verify if recruitment from a cohort can potentially renew the balsam fir seedling bank. Twenty-five seed traps paired with 32 demography subplots were located in each of four permanent plots and regularly monitored over a 2-year period. Spatial patterns of newly emerged seedlings generally corresponded to those found for seed dispersal. However, at the end of the monitoring period, the spatial pattern of surviving seedlings was independent of the seed dispersal pattern. Seedbed types and understory light en...
