Theaimofthisstudywastoestimatefinerootproduction（FP）andfinerootmortality（FM）at0–10,10–20,and20–30cmsoildepthsusingminirhizotronsina75-year-oldPinusdensifloraSieb.etZucc.forestlocatedinGwangneung,Korea.Wedevelopedtheconversionfactors（framecm-2）ofthreesoildepths（0.158for0–10cm,0.120for10–20cm,and0.131for20–30cm）basedonsoilcoringandminirhizotrondata.FPandFMwereestimatedusingconversionfactorsfromMarch26,2013toMarch2,2014.TheannualFPandFMvaluesatthe0–30cmsoildepthwere3200.2and2271.5kgha-1yr-1,respectively.TheFPestimateaccountedforapproximately17%ofthetotalnetprimaryproductionatthestudysite.FPwashighestinsummer（July31–September26）,andFMwashighestinautumn（September27–November29）.FPwaspositivelycorrelatedwithseasonalchangeinsoiltemperature,whileFMwasnotrelatedtothatchange.TheseasonalityofFPandFMmightbelinkedtoabove-groundphotosyntheticactivity.BothFPandFMatthe0–10cmdepthweresignificantlyhigherthanat10–20and20–30cmdepths,andthisresultedfromthedecreaseinnutrientavailabilitywithincreasingsoildepth.TheminirhizotronapproachandconversionfactorsdevelopedinthisstudywillenablefastandaccurateestimationofthefinerootdynamicsinP.densifloraforestecosystems.
