Abstract
A new method was proposed to study the dynamics of stem form of natural Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis) tree. In natural Korean Pine forest, the occurring time of maximum height and diameter is very difference. This paper connected stem form to stage of tree growth to analysis the form dynamic of Korean pine. The monpmolecular equation was chosen as the stem model. The result shows that the maximum growth year of natural Korean pine is earlier than diameter.
