Based on the Forest Resource Inventory Data,combining the data of sample sites investigation and stem analysis,we study and analyze the growth process and resource status.This paper estimates the region’s potential growth rate,the oak plant growth process and characteristics of oak resources,and puts forward relevant management suggestions.The results show that:(1)The quantitative maturity of natural tree seedling oak species (Quercus variabilis) is late and the fastest growth rate is from 10% to 20% by 20 years,while the growth peak period is slightly lagging the DBH and tree height.(2)The annual growth rate of oak resources is about 6.89%,of which young forest,middle-aged forest,and near mature forest are about 8.67%,3.46% and 2.62%,respectively;(3)The area and stock of oak resources are in the proportion of more than 50% in southern Shaanxi,mainly sprawling in the north-west Interchange of Qinling and Bashan,a relatively small surrounded by the Han River valley;(4)The forest age structure is irrational and the amount of available resources is very limited;(5)46% oak resources is divided into firewood;33% is water conservation forest and 21% is timber,natural forest area and stock are significantly larger than that of plantation;(6)From 1986 to 2009,the area and stock of oak resources increase significantly,but the forest quality is still poor and the woodland productivity is low.Overall the oak resources are abundant,but the distribution is extremely unbalanced.The further development of oak resources should first strengthen the cultivation and management,improve the quality of forest,strengthen classification management,and then carry out comprehensive forest economy strategies.
