D'autres facteurs clés que l'âge du peuplement qui contribuent à l'apparition des caractéristiques de vieille forêt (mesurées par un indice de même nom) ou influent sur leur évolution sont l'altitude et le régime hydrique (modifiés par l'emplacement de la station). 2, record 1, French, - caract%C3%A9ristiques%20de%20la%20for%C3%AAt%20ancienne
