Forest age distribution under mixed-severity fire regimes – a simulation-based analysis for middle boreal Fennoscandia
A simulation model was used to study the age structure of unmanaged forest landscapes under different fire regimes. Stand age was defined as the age of the oldest tree cohort in a stand. When most fires are not stand-replacing, the theoretical equilibrium stand age distribution is eit...
