Abstract: In order to evaluate the recovery degree of the natural restoration process of degraded Karst forest,the characters such as biomass,composition similarity with climax community,height,prominence and cover degree were chosen as the indexes.By the hierarchy analysis,the effect of above indexes to the natural restoration process of degrade Karst forest was studied.The result showed:the increase of community cover degree was the most fast(35%~79%),the increase of community average height(0.54~7.63 m) and spices compose were placed in the middle,the increase of community prominence and biomass(3.750 1~80.904 2 t/hm 2) were slow.It meant that the recovery of community functions got behind with the recovery of community appearance.The natural restoration process of degraded Karst forest was a lengthy progression.
