Competition-induced mortality for Mediterranean Pinus pinaster Ait. and P. sylvestris L.
102
TL;DR: A logistic model for determining the probability of survival in the next 5-year period of two of the main species in the Mediterranean area in Spain, Mediterranean maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Ait.) and Scots pine ( Pinus sylvestris L.), is presented in this paper.

Forest growth and yield modeling

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a model of a tree-list model with a set of static and dynamic equations. But they do not consider the effect of the number of trees in the model.

Drought-Induced Multifactor Decline of Scots Pine in the Pyrenees and Potential Vegetation Change by the Expansion of Co-occurring Oak Species
TL;DR: The results suggest that an altitudinal upwards migration of Quercus species, mediated by the dieback of the currently dominant species, may take place in the studied slopes, putting many rear-edge populations of Scots pine sheltered in the mountain environments of the Iberian Peninsula at risk under future climate scenarios.

Stand- and tree-level determinants of the drought response of Scots pine radial growth.
TL;DR: The results showed that fast-growing trees were more severely affected by the drought and retained proportionally lower growth rates up to three years after the episode, while older trees were found to be less resilient to drought.

The contribution of competition to tree mortality in old-growth coniferous forests
TL;DR: In this paper, the importance of competition in determining tree mortality in old-growth forests on the western slope of the Sierra Nevada of California, U.S.A. was investigated.

Structural and climatic determinants of demographic rates of Scots pine forests across the Iberian Peninsula
Albert Vilà-Cabrera,Jordi Martínez-Vilalta,Jordi Martínez-Vilalta,Jordi Vayreda,Javier Retana +4 more
TL;DR: A large-scale self-thinning related to the recent densification of Scots pine forests appears to be enhanced by dry conditions and may lead to a mismatch in forest turnover, suggesting forest management may be an essential adaptive tool under the drier conditions predicted by most climate models.

Woody plant mortality algorithms: description, problems and progress
TL;DR: It is suggested here that the use of a biologically reasonable predictor in a simple stochastic algorithm, used within a mechanistic model of plant growth, is a preferable improvement on how modelling mortality can be improved.

Multilevel linear mixed model for tree diameter increment in stone pine (Pinus pinea): a calibrating approach
Rafael Calama,Gregorio Montero +1 more
TL;DR: Both the fixed effects model and the calibrated model mean a substantial improvement when compared with the classical approach, widely used in forest management, of assuming constancy in diameter increment for a short projection period.
