Disturbances relate to tree regeneration patterns. After disturbances, sprouting grows relatively well than seedling, and sprouting has low mortality than seedling. The purpose of this study is to reveal the individual maintenance characteristics by regeneration origin and soil surface treatment, and to predict secondary succession. This study site was dominated by Japanese red pine (Pinus densiflora) forest located at 500 - 600 m a.s.l. of Mt. Daisen in the western part of Japan. In 2002, three types of surface treatment were established: clearcut, soil removal, and control plots. 20 m × 20 m square subplot was established in each plot and tree survey was made. Similarity of species composition showed higher value between clearcut and control plots. The dominant species of both clearcut and control plots were Prunus jamasakura, Quercus serrata, P. densiflora, Clethara barbinervis, Lindera umbellata. They dominated ca. 50 % in each subplot. Soil removal plot was dominated ca. 70 % by P. densiflora. Species with high sprouting ratio dominated well in every plot. These species were divided three dominance types: high BA dominance type, high number of stems type, and both of BA and number of stems type. This study suggested that the secondary succession after disturbances would not be same because of the different dominance strategies, even if the species composition was similar.
