Demonstrating the Effect of Height Variation on Stand-Level Optimization with Diameter-Structured Matrix Model

The weakness of the population matrix models is that they do not take into account the variation inside the class. In this study, we introduce an approach to add height variation of the trees to the diameter-structured matrix models. In this approach, a new sub-model that describes the height growth...
