Forest Growth and Yield Modeling synthesizes current scientific literature and provides
insights in how models are constructed. Giving suggestions for future developments, and …

Key message We modeled 10-year net stand volume growth with four machine learning
(ML) methods, ie, artificial neural networks (ANN), support vector machines (SVM), random …

Competition is known to be a key driver of plant population dynamics. However,
understanding how different types of competitive processes interact with population structure …

Individual-tree distance independent diameter growth models were developed for black
spruce and jack pine plantations. Data used in this study came via stem analysis on 1170 …

Determining forest volume increment, the potential of wood production in natural forests, is a
complex issue but is of fundamental importance to sustainable forest management …

A distance-independent diameter growth model, a static height model, an ingrowth model
and a survival model for uneven-aged mixtures of Pinus sylvestris L. and Pinus nigra Arn. in …

Aim of study: The present study evaluates a set of competition indices including spatially
explicit indices combined with different competitor selection approaches and non-spatially …

An individual-tree growth model was developed with data from 54 permanent plots of Scots
pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) located in Galicia (northwestern Spain). The study involved two …

En las últimas décadas la investigación forestal ha permitido desarrollar métodos precisos y
fiables para describir los bosques y los árboles que los constituyen y para predecir su …

Background Over the last decades, many forest simulators have been developed for the
forests of individual European countries. The underlying growth models are usually based …
