Predicting Tree Height-Diameter Relationship from Relative Competition Levels Using Quantile Regression Models for Chinese Fir (<i>Cunninghamia lanceolata</i>) in Fujian Province, China
The importance of the height-diameter (H-D) relationship in forest productivity is well known. The general nonlinear regression model, based on the mean regression technical, is not able to give a complete description of the H-D relationship. This study aims to evaluate the H-D relationship among re...
