Introduction and Objective: Natural disturbances caused by the canopy gap an important role in forest dynamics. Analyzing the dynamics of the canopy gap provides an accurate understanding of the process of forest stands dynamics as well as natural disturbances that play an important role in the future management of the forest ecosystem. The present study examines the dynamics of the canopy gap in the Arab Dagh forestry in Golestan province.
Material and Methods: The identification and preparation of the gaps map was done by the basic object classification method. The classification of the basic object can be done in three general stages, which include segmentation, classification and evaluation of classification accuracy.In the next step, the 1345 canopy gap in 2011 and the 1058 canopy gap in 2019 were extracted from the method that had the best performance compared to other methods of preparing gap maps. The characteristics of the gaps were obtained at each time period. Also, with the intersection of these two maps, the dynamics of the gaps was analyzed by calculating the characteristics Gap formation rate, Gap closure rate, Gap expansion rate, Gap reduction rate, and Gap number increase rate.
Results: The results of the canopy gap dynamics during the 9 years showed that the number and density of the canopy gap decreased. But the average area canopy gap and the share of the area of the canopy gap in the total area increased.In both periods, 65% of the canopy gap have an area of less than 150 m2, and a large canopy gap (larger than 300 m2) covered the lowest frequency and share of the total area of the canopy gap. The highest rate of changes in the canopy gap source was related to the Gap expansion rate (1.09% per year). The Gap closure rate is almost equal to the Gap reduction rate. The lowest rate of changes in the light is the Gap formation rate (0.77% per year). The logarithmic Gap number increase rate (GNIR) was negative (-2.6) that in all canopy gap classes, the number of closed canopy gaps per year is more than It is the number of new canopy gap that is created.
Conclusion: With the passage of 9 years, the density of gaps and the number of gaps have decreased and the total surface of gaps has increased. This increase in the total level of gap can be attributed to the increase in the Gap expansion during the period. Because the Gap expansion rate is higher than the Gap formation rate, the Gap closure rate and Gap reduction rate.In both periods of time, the most abundant size was related to small holes. which indicates the predominance of small lights in the studied area. which shows the predominance of small gaps in the studied area, small gaps make up most of the dynamics of gaps and close faster than big gaps.
