Abstract: Abstract Classical tree neighborhood models use size variables acting at point distances. In a new approach here, trees were spatially extended as a function of their crown sizes, represented impressionistically as points within crown areas.… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Extended rotations have been suggested as a strategy for balancing timber production and ecological objectives. By lengthening the period of stand development, extended rotations may increase tree size inequality and other elements of structural… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Forests and snow covered regions frequently co-occur across the northern hemisphere. In these environments, forests are structurally and spatially complex mosaics of tree neighborhoods that are intrinsically linked to ecosystem functions. Tree and canopy… read more here.
