Modeling of trees failure under windstorm in harvested Hyrcanian forests using machine learning techniques

Abstract In managed forests, windstorm disturbances reduce the yield of timber by imposing the costs of unscheduled clear-cutting or thinning operations. Hyrcanian forests are affected by permanent winds, with more than 100 km/h which cause damage forest trees and in result of the tree harvesting an...
