Miombo woodlands constitute the most extensive type of forest cover within South and East Africa, Tanzania in particular, they are seriously threatened by intensive degradation deforestation. The dynamics miombo stands were examined this study using a simple simulation system applied to experimental at Kitulangalo Forest Reserve (KFR) Tanzania. Prediction tree-level diameter increment, mortalit...

Climate change has significant effects on forest ecosystems around the world. Since tree diameter increment determines volume and ultimately production, an accurate estimate of this variable under future climate is great importance for sustainable management. In study, we modeled current expected change, using multilayer perceptron (MLP) artificial neural networks linear mixed-effect model in t...

Silviculture focuses on establishing forest stand conditions that improve the stand increment. Knowledge about the efficiency of an individual tree is essential to be able to establish stand structures that increase tree resource use efficiency and stand level production. Efficiency is often expressed as stem growth per unit leaf area (leaf area efficiency), or per unit of light absorbed (light...

The study on the diameter and volume increment of black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) stand (age 10-27 years, yield class II) have shown that in comparison to periodic annual breast height tree I, trees II reached 83.3%, while III only 43.9. same relations for were found 59.0% 24.5%, respectively. mean values whole close those II. According distribution between 10 27 years age, 50% 2.00 and1...

A stand generation (or initialization) procedure is designed to furnish morphologically plausible model trees for process-based projection. The steps of the initialization are: (i) the generation of the locations of model trees and the tessellation of tree areas; (ii) the sampling of diameters from a target distribution and assignments of those diameters to model-tree locations; (iii) the calcu...

Accurate knowledge of individual tree ages is critical for forestry and ecological research. However, previous methods suffer from flaws such as damage, low efficiency, or ignoring autocorrelation among residuals. In this paper, an approach estimating the trees proposed based on diameter series Cinnamomum camphora (Cinnamomum (L.) Presl), Schima superba (Schima Gardn. et Champ.), Liquidambar fo...
