Seedling passage times in gaps and closed canopies reveal decades of understory persistence in a New England forest by Isabella Stone, Jeffrey Mintz, Claudia J. Garnica‐Díaz, Chia‐Hao Chang‐Yang, David A. Orwig, Audrey A. Barker Plotkin, April Zee, Raelene M. Crandall, Daniel J. Johnson, Lukas J. Magee

“…Compared to our empirical age‐to‐height relationships, most simulations tended to underpredict seedling age for a given height, suggesting that passage times may be even longer than our simulations indicated. Our study shows that trees can persist for decades in the seedling life stage, highlighting a need for better‐parameterized recruitment processes in demographic forecasting.…”
