Implications of mechanistic modeling of drought effects on growth and competition in forest landscape models

Implications of mechanistic modeling of drought effects on growth and competition in forest landscape models

Abstract The incidence of drought is expected to increase worldwide as a factor structuring forested landscapes. Ecophysiological mechanisms are being added to Forest Landscape Models (FLMs) to increase their robustness to the novel environmental conditions of the future (including drought), but the...
