Effect of Stand Structure and Number of Sample Trees on Optimal Management for Scots Pine: A Model-Based Study

Effect of Stand Structure and Number of Sample Trees on Optimal Management for Scots Pine: A Model-Based Study

This study presents an attempt to discover the effect of sample size on the financial outcome derived by stand-level optimization with individual tree modeling. The initial stand structure was altered to reflect sparse, average, and dense Scots pine (<i>Pinus sylvestris</i> L.) stands. T...
