Journal ArticleDOI
Sustainability of forest management practices: Evaluation through a simulation model of nutrient cycling
TL;DR: In this article, a process-based model of nutrient cycling is proposed to evaluate temporal changes in ecosystem nutrient dynamics of managed and non-managed forest stands in the western Pyrenees (Navarre, Spain).
Journal ArticleDOI
Yield decline in Chinese-fir plantations: a simulation investigation with implications for model complexity
J. Bi,J. Bi,Juan A. Blanco,Juan A. Blanco,Brad Seely,Brad Seely,James P. Kimmins,James P. Kimmins,Y. Ding,Y. Ding,C. Welham,C. Welham +11 more
TL;DR: Model results suggest that yield decline is caused primarily by a decline in soil fertility, largely as a consequence of slash burning in conjunction with short rotations, and may cause a gradual shift from tree dominance to shrub/herb dominance over subsequent rotations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complexity in modelling forest ecosystems: How much is enough?☆
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of adding complexity on the performance of a simple stand-level model and concluded that the effect depends on the time scale of the simulation and the management or natural disturbance regime that is being simulated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long‐term results and survival rate of implants treated with guided bone regeneration: a 5‐year case series prospective study
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that implants with peri-implant defects that are treated with GBR had similar survival rates and crestal bone levels compared with implants in native bone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tree-to-tree competition in mixed European beech–Scots pine forests has different impacts on growth and water-use efficiency depending on site conditions
Ester González de Andrés,J. Julio Camarero,Juan A. Blanco,J. Bosco Imbert,Yueh-Hsin Lo,Gabriel Sangüesa-Barreda,Federico J. Castillo +6 more
TL;DR: Comparison of growth and intrinsic water-use efficiency of Scots pine–European beech mixed stands at two climatically contrasting sites located in the southwestern Pyrenees suggests an enhanced beech growth in drought-prone sites due to improved water use.
