Managing mature Douglas-fir[Pseudotsuga menziesii(Mirb.)Franco]stands to emulate the structural complexity of natural old-growth forest requires identifying structural targets at the sub-stand level at which neighborh...
Funding for study establishment and remeasurements was provided by members of the Intermountain Forest Cooperative;Funding was also provided by the National Science Foundation award IIP-1916699。
Large trees have disproportionally large competitive advantage in access to light, which has been proposed to increase growth dominance of large trees (e.g., a larger proportion of volume growth than standing volume i...
Besides of the fi nancial support from the RGVFAO Project,Cristiano Castaldi has received the support by University of Tuscia(Italy)as Ph.D.student.The authors thank an anonymous reviewer for helpful suggestions on an earlier draft of this paper.
Douglas-fir(Pseudotsuga menziesii(Mirb.)Franco)is an important exotic tree species that was planted across a large part of Europe during the last century.In both experimental trials and conventional forest plantations...

Background: Volume and taper equations are essential for obtaining estimates of total and merchantable stem volume. Taper functions provide advantages to merchantable volume equations because they estimate diameter in...
We investigated the effects of a long-term thinning experiment on the distribution of above-ground biomass of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [Mirb.] Franco var. menziesii) in a plantation in southern Italy. Allo...
