Modeling crown structural responses to competing vegetation control, thinning, fertilization, and Swiss needle cast in coastal Douglas-fir of the Pacific Northwest, USA. (2007, background): “Both pre-commercial (Fahlvik et al., 2005; Ruha and Varmola, 1997) and commercial thinning (Gary, 1978; Medhurst and Beadle, 2001) have been shown to increase maximum branch size.”
Annualized diameter and height growth equations for Pacific Northwest plantation-grown Douglas-fir, western hemlock, and red alder. (2007, methodology): “Several recent growth equations have been parameterized using mixed-effects models with no assessment of their performance on an independent dataset relative to ordinary least squares (e.g. Fahlvik et al., 2005; Nothdurft et al., 2006).”
