We developed a method to reconstruct past stand structures especially diameter distribution, by data obtained by investigations of present stands. On the assumption that regeneration takes place in gaps when upper-story trees die, we reconstructed past upper-story trees in past gaps. Past gaps were estimated from tree ring analysis and spatial distribution analysis of present trees. Past lower-story trees were reconstructed according to shading of the forest floor. It became possible to reconstruct past diameter distributions by repeating this procedure. We applied this method to a broad-leaved secondary forest stand in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan, and obtained apparently satisfactory results in reconstruction.
