Root data										
remarks:	data H. Persson (2000); method: Stober et al (2000)									
 	Beech stand AuF. Coring was made close to five observation-windows representing 5 different trees.									
	At 4 distances from the tree 2 cores were taken and put together.									
	In the beech site there was no LFH-layer developed									
	Roots >1mm were too skattered in their distribution to give reliable results.
