Abstract: Based on the investigation in a 4 hm2 Betula-Abies forest plot in sub-alpine area in West Sichuan of China, and by using point pattern analysi s method in terms of O-ring statistics, the spatial patterns of dominant specie s Betula albo-sinensis and Abies faxoniana in different age classes in study ar ea were analyzed, and the intra- and inter-species associations between these age classes were studied. B. albo-sinensis had a unimodal distribution of i ts DBH frequency, indicating a declining population, while A. faxoniana had a reverse J-shaped pattern, showing an increasing population. All the big trees of B. albo-sinensis and A. faxoniana were spatially in random at all s cales, while the medium age and small trees were spatially clumped at small scal es and tended to be randomly or evenly distributed with increasing spatial scale . The maximum aggregation degree decreased with increasing age class. Spatial as sociation mainly occurred at small scales. A. faxoniana generally showed pos itive intra-specific association, while B. albo-sinensis generally showed negative intra-specific association. For the two populations, big and small tre es had no significant spatial association, but middle age trees had negative spa tial association. Negative inter-specific associations of the two populations w ere commonly found in different age classes. The larger the difference of age cl ass, the stronger the negative inter-specific association.
