Demography and recruitment of Scots pine on raised bogs in eastern Sweden and relationships to microhabitat differentiation

• Scots pines (Pinus sylvestris) growing on open bogs occur preferentially on hummocks and on the margin of the bogs. To assess which life history stages lead to this uneven distribution, we studied how variation in the ground-water level influences recruit
