Modelling Forest Development

Více o knize

Forest development is influenced by both natural growth and human interventions, such as thinning operations, which significantly affect resource evolution. Understanding growth processes is crucial for successful timber management, allowing foresters to evaluate the impact of different silvicultural practices. This book emphasizes the importance of growth modeling in predicting the outcomes of management actions, focusing on economic yield defined by log dimensions and quality rather than just total timber volume. It serves as a guide for optimizing woodland ecosystem management.
