Diachronic analysis of individual-tree mortality in a Norway spruce stand in the eastern Italian
Alps Page 1 Ann. For. Sci. 67 (2010) 304 Available online at: c INRA, EDP Sciences, 2010 …

Growth-independent tree mortality (mortality of trees from the upper layer of the stand
canopy or mortality besides self-thinning) was investigated in north-temperate forests of …

This study focused on tree mortality in spruce-dominated stands managed using the single-
tree selection method in southern Finland. Together with regeneration and tree growth …

Mortality, driven by both climate and disturbance legacies, is a key process shaping forest
dynamics. Understanding the mortality patterns in primary forests in the absence of severe …

Question: Tree mortality can be modeled using two complementary covariates, tree size and
tree growth. Tree growth is an integrative measure of tree vitality while tree diameter is a …

Scientifically sound methods are essential to estimate the survival of trees, as they can
substantially support sustainable management of natural forest resources. Tree mortality …

Spatial patterns can reveal a lot about ecological processes, but our knowledge of the
spatial ecology of tree regeneration at a fine scale is quite limited. Therefore, we studied the …

Partitioning of tree mortality into different modes of death allows the tracing and mechanistic
modelling of individual key processes of forest dynamics each varying depending on site …

Decline of the oak forests decline in southern Sweden has been reported for more than two
decades. Little empirical data exists, however, to study the temporal pattern of the …

We used spatiotemporal inventory data from declining balsam fir (Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.)
and spruce (Picea spp.) stands in New Brunswick, Canada, to determine the extent of tree-to …
