BARRETO, Luís Soares. The Changing Geometry of Self-Thinned Mixed Stands: A Simulative Quest . Silva Lus. [online]. 2007, vol.15, n.1, pp.119-132. ISSN 0870-6352.

The author uses an analytical procedure he developed, and simulated data of self-thinned even-aged mixed stands of Quercus robur+Pinus pinaster, Pseudotsuga menziesii+Picea sitchensis, and Pinus nigra ssp.laricio+Pinus pinaster, to scrutinize the allometry and fractal geometry of this type of stands. He verified that they are highly variable. They continuously change with initial proportions of each population, and age.

Palabras clave : allometry; fractal geometry; self-thinned mixed stands; Picea sitchensis; Pinus nigra ssp.laricio; Pinus pinaster; Pseudotsuga menziesii; Quercus robur.
