Abstract: Abstract Generally, the effects of climate change on tree growth focus on changes in one dimension of a tree. However, diameter increment along the main stem reacts differently to climatic variables, which in turn influences… read more here.

DOI: 10.1139/cjfr-2017-0182
Abstract: Northern hardwood trees display a wide variety of stem forms and defects, which can substantially reduce their financial value and also complicate their silviculture. While attributes of stem form and defect have been incorporated into… read more here.

DOI: 10.1590/0001-3765201820170569
Abstract: Taper functions and volume equations are essential for estimation of the individual volume, which have consolidated theory. On the other hand, mathematical innovation is dynamic, and may improve the forestry modeling. The objective was analyzing… read more here.
