Sentence examples for maximum stand density from inspiring English sources

We observed a greater maximum stand density index for bottomland hardwoods than has previously been reported (1200 trees ha−1 at 25 cm QMD).

Increased yields may result from strong niche complementarity (e.g., by combining light-demanding species in the upper storey with shade-tolerant species in the understorey), supporting more trees per hectare (i.e., an increased maximum stand density) to forage.

Additionally, we estimated the self-thinning line at this point in stand development and compared the size density relationship in this forest to the theorized (−1.605) log log slope of Reineke's Rule, which relates maximum stand density to average tree size.

Mixing tree species can also significantly increase the maximum stand density compared with monospecific stands (Fig. 1), resulting in overdensity in terms of tree numbers per hectare (Amorosos and Turnblom 2006), stand basal area (Wellhausen et al. 2017), stand density index (Pretzsch and Biber 2016), or standing volume (Bielak et al. 2014).

The most extreme height:diameter ratios would be reached for open-grown trees and for trees at a maximum stand density.

Numerous studies on the validation of tree growth models focused on such "emergent properties", e.g. Reineke's maximum stand density (e.g. Pretzsch et al., 2002; Monserud et al., 2005).

Of special interest is which stand density enables maximum productivity per unit area.

In contrast to other Amazonian igapó and várzea floodplains, the flooding gradient imprinted only weakly on most stand-level structural and dynamic properties, while it influenced mean wood density and maximum stand height.

In addition to these basal area measurements, stand density index (SDI), quadratic mean diameter (Dq), maximum DBH, and maximum HT were selected as important stand-level variables.

Each trial contained between two and four levels of stand density, with the minimum stand density averaging 345 stems ha−1 (range 250 980 stems ha−1) and the maximum averaging 1330 stems ha−1 (range 740 2700 stems ha−1).

The increment functions are able to describe the (1) total carbon production of stemwood per hectare (TCP) at increment optimal stand density (SD o p t ) depending only on age, (2) estimate the managed stand density and (3) the maximum possible stand density, estimate (4) the tree size (DBH, height) and (5) the influence of stand density on TCP and DBH increment.
