Generalized height-diameter models for Fagus orientalis Lipsky in Hyrcanian forest, Iran

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2016
In this study, 39 generalized height-diameter prediction models were developed for Oriental beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) in the Hyrcanian forest in Iran. Data were collected from 75 permanent sample plots in uneven-aged stands of F. orientalis.

Diameter and height increment process of oriental beech (Fagus orientalis) in natural Caspian forests; Kelardasht region [PDF]

open access: yesتحقیقات جنگل و صنوبر ایران, 2007
The development stages in the natural forests run very slowly, which are not easy to recognize them within a short period of time. The duration of development of a stand and transition from one stage to another varies among the forest communities.

Effects of altitude and seasonal variation on stem moisture content and radial distribution in Scots pine and Oriental beech

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología
The stem moisture content (MC) of living trees governs log weight, drying behavior, preservative uptake, and the susceptibility of timber to checking and decay, while also reflecting the response of the tree to climate.

Integrating multiscale ecological indicators to assess ecosystem functioning in virgin Hyrcanian beech forests

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change
Virgin oriental beech (Fagus orientalis L.) forests of the Hyrcanian region in northern Iran are among the last remnants of temperate old-growth ecosystems worldwide, yet their ecological benchmarks remain poorly defined.
