Modeling stand mortality using Poisson mixture models with mixed-effects

Stand mortality models play an important role in simulating stand dynamic processes. Periodic stand mortality data from permanent plots tend to be dispersed, and frequently contain an excess of zero counts. Such data have commonly been analyzed using the Poisson distribution and Poisson mixture mode...
