Crown size and growing space requirement of common tree species in urban centres, parks, and forests (2015, unknown): “, can be used as proxy variables for leaf area nd leaf biomass (Binkley et al., 2013; Forrester, 2013).”
Mapping local density of young Eucalyptus plantations by individual tree detection in high spatial resolution satellite images (2013, background): “This part of the stand has also a higher percentage of clay content and is more prone to encroachment by herbaceous vegetation (Campoe et al., 2012).”
Increasing stand structural heterogeneity reduces productivity in Brazilian Eucalyptus monoclonal stands (2016, background): “…heterogeneous stands, dominant trees are likely to have smaller neighbors than they would in less heterogeneous stands and they therefore grow faster because they capture more resources and use them more efficiently (Binkley et al., 2002, 2010, 2013; Campoe et al., 2013; Forrester et al., 2013).”
Effect of tree species mixing on the size structure, density, and yield of forest stands (2015, background): “Furthermore, it is rather difficult to scale up from individual tree growth to stand-level reaction patterns as the light supply, capture, and use-efficiency vary among others with tree species, age, tree size, and hierarchical position (Binkley et al. 2013; Webster and Lorimer 2003).”
Tree and stand light use efficiencies over a full rotation of single- and mixed-species Eucalyptus grandis and Acacia mangium plantations (2013, unknown): “5) (Binkley et al., 2013).”
Crown plasticity enables trees to optimize canopy packing in mixed-species forests (2015, background): “By promoting the formation of denser and more structurally complex canopies, species mixing can maximise light interception at the stand level (Binkley et al. 2013), thereby increasing forest productivity (Hardiman et al.”
