A multilevel individual tree basal area increment model for aspen in boreal mixedwood stands (2009, background): “The importance of tree diameter has led to numerous efforts to develop diameter or basal area increment models (Westfall 2006), which are widely used for predicting future tree size, individual tree volume or biomass growth, or tree survival probability (Yang et al. 2003).”
Individual-tree diameter growth and mortality models for bottomland mixed-species hardwood stands in the lower Mississippi alluvial valley (2004, methodology): “Therefore, a U-shaped mortality trend is probably expected (Buchman et al., 1983; Lorimer and Frelich, 1984; Monserud and Sterba, 1999; Yang et al., 2003).”
Individual-tree diameter growth model for rebollo oak (Quercus pyrenaica Willd.) coppices (2008, background): “Unless grown openly, a tree always experiences some competition from its neighbors, competing for limited physical space and resources such as light, water and soil nutrients (Yang et al., 2003).”
Forest Growth and Yield Modeling (2011, methodology): “Rather than using a species basal area over total basal area, Yang et al. (2003) used BAL of hardwood trees over total basal area to model white spruce mortality in Alberta.”
Is drought the main decline factor at the rear edge of Europe? The case of southern Iberian pine plantations (2012, background): “Competition was characterized by basal area (BA), quadratic mean diameter (Dg), ratio dbh/Dg, ratio BA-basal area density (G), stand density (N) and Reineke’s stand density index (SDI) (Yang et al., 2003; Shaw, 2006) (Table 2).”
