Old-growth forests as global carbon sinks.
Sebastiaan Luyssaert,Ernst Detlef Schulze,Annett Börner,Alexander Knohl,Dominik Hessenmöller,Beverly E. Law,Philippe Ciais,John Grace +7 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that old-growth forests can continue to accumulate carbon, contrary to the long-standing view that they are carbon neutral, and suggest that 15 per cent of the global forest area, which is currently not considered when offsetting increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations, provides at least 10 per cent the global net ecosystem productivity.

Individual-based modeling and ecology
Volker Grimm,Steven F. Railsback +1 more
TL;DR: An excellent introduction and overview of this field, written by Volker Grimm and Steven F. Railsback, should be read by everyone interested in individual-based modeling and especially by anyone contemplating developing, or being involved with a group developing, an individualbased model.
Book
Modelling Forest Growth and Yield: Applications to Mixed Tropical Forests
TL;DR: There is a large body of work on the use of mixed plantations and natural forests in forest management as mentioned in this paper, and many approaches have been proposed to build a model for mixed forests.

Allometric scaling of plant energetics and population density
Brian J. Enquist,Brian J. Enquist,James H. Brown,James H. Brown,Geoffrey B. West,Geoffrey B. West +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the scaling relationship between density and mass in resource-limited plants was investigated and a mechanistic model was developed to predict that average plant size should scale as the −4/3 power of maximum population density, in agreement with empirical evidence and comparable relationships in animals.
