Insect outbreaks affect forests, causing the deaths of trees and high economic loss. In this
study, we explored the detection of European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus, L.) …

In burned landscapes, the recruitment success of the tree dominant species mainly depends
on plant competition mechanisms operating at fine spatial scale, that may hinder resource …

In times of more frequent global change‐type droughts and associated tree mortality events,
competition release is one silvicultural measure discussed to have an impact on the …

Tree spatial distribution patterns such as random, regular, and clustered play a crucial role
in numerical simulations of carbon and water cycles and energy exchanges between forest …

Giant trees are pivotal in forest ecosystems, yet our current understanding of their
significance is constrained primarily by the limited knowledge of their precise locations and …

The competitive stress of individual trees can be quantified by considering their positions
and dimensions such as diameter at breast height (dbh) and height with respect to their …

Assessing forest health is crucial for managing and conserving forest ecosystems. Tree
condition can be measured through a wide range of methods related to structural and …

Understanding tree and stand growth dynamics in the frame of climate change calls for large-
scale analyses. For analysing growth patterns in mountain forests across Europe, the CLIMO …

Very few spatially explicit tree models have so far been constructed with a view to project
remote-sensing data directly. To fill this gap, we introduced the prototype of the …
