Summary |
How do tree crowns, trees or forest stands respond to thinning in the long term? What effect do tree species mixtures and multi-layering have on the productivity and stability of trees, stands or forest enterprises? This book focuses on the experimental designs, analytical methods, general relationships and models for answering such questions |
