Damage Diversity as a Metric of Structural Complexity after Forest Wind Disturbance
This study presents a new metric for quantifying structural complexity using the diversity of tree damage types in forests that have experienced wind disturbance. Structural complexity studies of forests have to date not incorporated any protocol to address the variety of structural damage types exp...
