Synthesis and future research directions linking tree diversity to growth, survival, and damage in a global network of tree diversity experiments (2018, methodology): “Compared to traditional methods, neighbourhood analyses using terrestrial laser scanning account for detailed crown characteristics of individuals that typically vary depending on the species, environmental conditions and plasticity (Metz et al., 2013; Olivier et al., 2016).”
Diversity and competition influence tree allometric relationships – developing functions for mixed‐species forests (2017, background): “This is despite the fact that allometric relationships can vary in the presence of interspecific competition, and different competing species have different effects, as has been shown at the tree level for heights, crown projection areas, height to the crown base, leaf biomass and stem biomass (Getz”
Response of sugar maple (Acer saccharum, Marsh.) tree crown structure to competition in pure versus mixed stands (2016, background): “These TLS and ALS derived indices better explain tree growth than the traditional indices computed from DBH, height or CPA.”
Toward managing mixed-species stands: from parametrization to prescription (2017, background): “3) and thereby wood quality (Metz et al. 2013, Zeller et al. 2017).”
Effects of crown architecture and stand structure on light absorption in mixed and monospecific Fagus sylvatica and Pinus sylvestris forests along a productivity and climate gradient through Europe (2018, background): “K E Y W O R D S allometric equation, biodiversity, complementarity, Maestra model, plant–plant interactions, resource availability, tree height Benneter, Bouriaud, & Bauhus, 2017; Metz et al., 2013; Pretzsch, 2014).”
Tree ring wood density of Scots pine and European beech lower in mixed-species stands compared with monocultures (2017, background): “Such an overyielding is often achieved through morphological acclimation to inter-specific environments (Metz et al., 2013; Pretzsch and Dieler, 2012) where mixing can modify e.”
Comparison and Combination of Mobile and Terrestrial Laser Scanning for Natural Forest Inventories (2018, background): “Overlapping crowns and regions of interactions of an individual tree with its neighbors are detected by determining the intersection of alpha-shapes [51,52].”
