Growth modelling for mixed tropical forests
- Abstract:
-
This manual is directed at the analysis of permanent sample plot (PSP) data from mixed tropical forests to produce growth and yield models. It assumes some knowledge of matrix algebra, statistical methods, and computer programming. Its emphasis is on the practical technique of data analysis and model building. It is divided into five sections. The first covers definition of modelling terms and selection of strategy. It recommends a deterministic empirical strategy as most appropriate for forest planning applications from conventional PSPsand Inventory data, and describes two basic approaches: Diameter class projection and cohort modelling...
