The analysis of growth dynamics in natural forest is indispensable for managing natural forest resources. Growth dynamics was analyzed for the permanent plot of natural forest for forty years in the Hokkaido Prefectural Forest of Kitami district. The result of analysis showed that stand volume was increasing sharply, while the total number of trees were decreasing for forty years. Main decreasing species were broadleaf trees. Volume of spruce and fir was shown a accounts for the big rate of total stand volume increments. Therefore, stand volume increments was increasing for forty years. Gross volume growths was 326.1 cubic m/ha for forty years and net volume growth was 243.8 cubic m/ha for forty years.
