Vertical structure and spatial associations of dominant tree species in an old-growth temperate forest (2007, methodology): “The O-ring statistics characterizes patterns by the frequency of points co-occurring at a given distance, so it can analyze the spatial patterns derived from ecological processes easily and intuitively (Wiegand and Moloney, 2004; Schurr et al., 2004).”
Beyond description: the active and effective way to infer processes from spatial patterns. (2009, methodology): “…is useful, but we note that these are just a sample; there are other studies, produced over a span of decades, that have had similar success using this approach (e.g., Bachacou and Decourt 1976, Franklin et al. 1985, Barot et al. 1999, Wiegand et al. 2000, Jolles et al. 2002, Schurr et al. 2004).”
