Growing Plantation Forests (2010, background): “Many works discuss both older and more recent approaches to forest modelling (e.g. Vanclay 1995; Battaglia and Sands 1998; Mäkelä et al. 2000; Peng 2000a, b; Davis et al. 2001; Le Roux et al. 2001; Avery and Burkhart 2002; Porté and Bartelink 2002; Mäkelä 2003; Matala et al. 2003; Almeida et al. 200”
A multilevel individual tree basal area increment model for aspen in boreal mixedwood stands (2009, background): “It is not easy to model mixed-species stands because of large variations in terms of species contributions to the mixture, the stand origin, and the site conditions and subsequent species interactions (Porté and Bartelink 2002).”
Clearing the way for reducing emissions from tropical deforestation (2007, background): “Over the last two decades many biophysical models of forest growth dynamics have been developed, many of them with the specific objective of using data from satellite imagery as input to drive the models (for a review of many such models, see Porté and Bartelink, 2002).”
Forest Growth and Yield Modeling (2011, methodology): “Tree-level models are the preferred means for simulating growth in mixed species (Port e and Bartelink, 2002) and uneven-aged stands (Peng, 2000), because competition between different species or size classes is better represented.”
Many ways to die – partitioning tree mortality dynamics in a near‐natural mixed deciduous forest (2013, background): “Old-tree mortality is usually modelled simplistically in forest dynamic models, its rate being derived from reported maximum ages without any mechanistic considerations (Hawkes 2000; Keane et al. 2001; Porté & Bartelink 2002; Lutz & Halpern 2006).”
Individual-tree diameter growth and mortality models for bottomland mixed-species hardwood stands in the lower Mississippi alluvial valley (2004, background): “…simulations fit yield data better than tree level simulations, as a result of cumulated model errors from tree to stand-level, tree level approaches seem most appropriate for understanding stand growth as affected by competition between individuals of different species (Porté and Bartelink, 2002).”
