Stand structural diversity rather than species diversity enhancesaboveground carbon storage in secondary subtropical forests in Eastern China (2016, background): “The structural and species diversity of stands depend to a large extent on the stand age (Lei et al., 2009; Wang et al., 2011; Zhang and Chen, 2015).”
The effect of biodiversity on tree productivity: from temperate to boreal forests (2011, methodology): “Only Lei et al. (2009) included boreal species.”
Increasing stand structural heterogeneity reduces productivity in Brazilian Eucalyptus monoclonal stands (2016, background): “However, it is important to note that species diversity associated with structural heterogeneity sometimes has a positive effect on productivity (Lei et al., 2009; Wang et al., 2011; Paquette and Messier, 2011; Vilà et al., 2013; Zhang and Chen, 2015), whereas in this study, where genetic diversity…”
Forest Growth and Yield Modeling (2011, background): “Although stand-level growth is related to stand structural indices (e.g. Lei et al., 2009), relatively little work attempting to incorporate these types of measures into tree-level equations exists, and likely warrants further investigation.”
Diversity and equitability ordering profiles applied to study forest structure (2012, methodology): “It may be the case that just practical criteria needs to be taken into account, such as their discriminant ability and capacity for ordering in a logical ranking (Lexerød and Eid, 2006; Staudhammer and LeMay, 2001).”
Characterization of the structure, dynamics, and productivity of mixed-species stands: review and perspectives (2015, methodology): “However, the number of cored trees per species required to estimate stand age can vary greatly among studies (Chen et al. 2003; Lei et al. 2009; Waskiewicz et al. 2013).”
Characterizing forest structural types and shelterwood dynamics from Lorenz-based indicators predicted by airborne laser scanning (2013, background): “2008), enabling the application of customized growth, and yield models according to the regeneration rates that are appropriate for each of them (Lei et al. 2009; De-Miguel et al. 2012).”
