Stem Respiratory Rate and Stem Surface Area. 330 $aThis book reveals the benefits of describing and modeling trees as the combined surface areas of their stems, and provides a concise overview of the fundamental grounds for adopting such an approach. Anatomically speaking, trees are largely thin sheaths of living cells and it is this understanding that has sparked growing interest in the study of stem surface areas in trees and stands. An overview of publications on analytical methods for the dynamics and structure of forest stands based on stem surface area is also provided. The approach described here gives readers a chance to rethink some models that were popular for decades, while also offering a glance into future research. The application of a simple geometrical model of a forest stand has made it possible to reexamine a highly promising model, the self-thinning rule, which has been a subject of a protracted discussion for the past few decades. Further, the analysis presented here can serve as the basis for predicting forest stand increments, a topic that calls for further development. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Plant Science,$x2192-1229 606 $aForestry 606 $aEcology  606 $aPlant anatomy 606 $aPlant development 606 $aForestry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L22008 606 $aTheoretical Ecology/Statistics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19147 606 $aPlant Anatomy/Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24019 615 0$aForestry. 615 0$aEcology . 615 0$aPlant anatomy. 615 0$aPlant development. 615 14$aForestry. 615 24$aTheoretical Ecology/Statistics. 615 24$aPlant Anatomy/Development. 676 $a582.1603 700 $aGavrikov$b Vladimir L$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0927849 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253912503321 996 $aStem Surface Area in Modeling of Forest Stands$92084566 997 $aUNINA
