Analysis of the Relative Importance of Stand Structure and Site Conditions for the Productivity, Species Diversity, and Carbon Sequestration of Cunninghamia lanceolata and Phoebe bournei Mixed Forest [PDF]
Forest stand structure (the characteristics and interrelationships of live trees) and site conditions (the physical and environmental characteristics of a specific location) have been linked to forest regeneration, nutrient cycling, wildlife habitat, and

Tree species richness as the element of structure and diversity in mixed stands of beech and valuable broadleaves [PDF]
In our forest science and forest operations, the tree species richness and diversity of woody species in forest stands are most often evaluated based on the total number of tree species, which is a methodologically partly inadequate approach. For this

Effect of grazing and environmental factors on the structure of Brant`s oak stands of Zagros (Case study: Dalab Park, Ilam) [PDF]
Species composition and structure of forest stands are subject to temporal changes as a function of anthropogenic or natural disturbances. The investigation of such changes in association to environmental factors plays an important role in analyzing of ...

Evaluation of competition indices to assess the effect of management interventions on oriental beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) forest of Lavij- Noor region, Mazandaran province [PDF]
Tree to tree variation in growth results from compositional complexity, stand structure and competition. Therefore, it is essential to know how trees respond to competitive interactions.
