Abstract

BARRETO, Luís Soares. The Blended Geometry of Self-Thinned Uneven-Aged Mixed Stands. Silva Lus. [online]. 2010, vol.18, n.2, pp.225-237. ISSN 0870-6352.

The author analysis the structure and the dynamic of self-thinned uneven-aged mixed stands of Quercus robur + Fraxinus excelsior, and Alnus rubra + Pseudotsuga menziesii + Picea sitchensis. He depicted the influence of competitive hierarchy, proportions of the species, and age upon them. Stochastic simulations of the stands with European species are also presented and commented.

Keywords : Competitive hierarchies; self-thinned uneven-aged mixed stands; stand structure; stand dynamics; stochastic simulation.
