Description of the research theme
This research project analyzes forest inventory data from two time points, approximately 10 years apart, to detect and characterize different harvesting practices, such as clearcuts and thinning, in a large forest landscape of about 200,000 hectares. Simultaneously, this research uses conventional simulation based approaches to project forest development resulting from various management alternatives. Using this database, the research compares the simulated alternatives to the realized management t...
