Examining the Effect of Beech Bark Disease on Radial Growth in American Beech
Forests, 2023 Beech bark disease (BBD) is a significant threat to forests of North America and the impact of BBD on radial growth in the American beech is substantial. We developed a novel hierarchical Bayesian (HB) model to simultaneously model disease dynamics, tree growth, and the interaction of the two.
