Advances of Gap Model

Abstract

Abstract: ased on surfvey of more than 30 papers and books, the paper systematically reviewed research history of Gap model. The advances of some main topics of Gap model such as fundamental growth equation, effects of the environmental factors (light, temperature and soil moisture), regeneration and mortality were summarized.

Key words: hygroscopic and condensate water, biological soil crus, biomass, water content, Shapotou.
