title: Evaluation of Scots Pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) High Mountain Afforestation: The Case of the Galyan
abstract: This study aims to evaluate the afforestation success based on the 10-year development of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) seedlings planted at higher elevations within the current forest boundary as part of the "Galyan Afforestation Project." Sample plots were selected from the Scots pine reforestation area, established in 2007, based on three different aspects (north, northeast, northwest) and two elevation ranges (1790–1890 m, 1891–1990 m). In 2011, data were collected from each sample plot,
