Phenomenon in which the crowns of fully stocked trees do not touch each other
For the album by Trash Boat, see Crown Shyness (album).
Crown shyness (also canopy disengagement,[1]canopy shyness,[2] or inter-crown spacing[3]) is a feature observed in some tree species, in which the crowns of fully stocked trees do not touch each other, instead forming a canopy with channel-like gaps.[4][5]
This is most prevalent among trees of the same species, but also occurs between trees of different species.[6][7] There exist many hypotheses as to why crown shyness is an adaptive behavior, and research suggests that it might inhibit spread of leaf-eating insect larvae.[8]
