متن کاملAssessing model performance in forecasting long-term individual tree diameter versus basal area increment for the primary Acadian tree species
Tree basal area (ba) or diameter at breast height (dbh) are universally used to represent tree secondary growth in individual tree based growth models. However, the long-term implications of using either ba or dbh for predictions are rarely fully assessed. In this analysis, Dba and Ddbh increment equations were fit to identical datasets gathered from six conifer and four hardwood species grown ...
متن کاملA Basal Area Increment-Based Approach of Site Productivity Evaluation for Multi-Aged and Mixed Forests
Accurate estimates of forest site productivity are essential for environmental planning and forest management. In this study, we developed a new productivity index, hereafter termed basal area potential productivity index (BAPP), to estimate site productivity for irregular and complex forests characterized by multi-aged, multi-species, and multi-layer stands. We presented the biological relevan...
متن کاملIndividual-tree basal area growth models for jack pine and black spruce in northern Ontario
Individual-tree models of five-year basal area growth were developed for jack pine (Pinus banksiana Lamb.) and black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) BSP) in northern Ontario. Tree growth data were collected from long-term permanent plots of pure and mixed stands of the two species. The models were fitted using mixed model methods due to correlated remeasurements of tree growth over time. Since th...
متن کاملAllometric biomass equations for 12 tree species in coniferous and broadleaved mixed forests, Northeastern China
Understanding forest carbon budget and dynamics for sustainable resource management and ecosystem functions requires quantification of above- and below-ground biomass at individual tree species and stand levels. In this study, a total of 122 trees (9-12 per species) were destructively sampled to determine above- and below-ground biomass of 12 tree species (Acer mandshuricum, Acer mono, Betula p...
