3D tree dimensionality assessment using photogrammetry and small unmanned aerial vehicles

This paper develops an affordable method using UAVs and photogrammetry to create precise 3D tree models, improving forest analysis.

Data-intensive modeling of forest dynamics

The paper develops a data-intensive methodology to model forest dynamics using high-dimensional inventory data, identifying four key dimensions and predicting short- and long-term changes in forest structure.

An appraisal of the classic forest succession paradigm with the shade tolerance index

The paper evaluates the classic forest succession theory using a new shade tolerance index, finding it better explains succession dynamics than traditional metrics in US forests.
