At the same time, individual-based methods in forest management have been refined in a number of different countries and steadily grow in importance. For the first time this book integrates three main fields of forest ecology and management, i.e. tree/plant interactions, biometry of plant growth and human behaviour in forests. Individual-based forest ecology and management is an interdisciplinary research field with a focus on how the individual behaviour of plants contributes to the formation of spatial patterns that evolve through time. Key to this research is a strict bottom-up approach where the shaping and characteristics of plant communities are understood to be mostly the result of interactions between plants and between plants and humans. Written in a highly accessible style, the book provides essential information on theories and concepts of individual-based forest ecology and management and introduces point process statistics for analysing plant interactions. This is followed by methods of spatial modelling with a focus on individual-based models. The text is complemented by key concepts of modern plant growth science. Finally new methods of measuring, analysing and modelling human interaction with trees in forest ecosystems are introduced and discussed. For better access and understanding, all methods introduced in this book are accompanied by example code ready to use in the statistical software R and by worked examples. Additional technical details are given in three appendices. 606 $aForest management 606 $aBiometry 606 $aStatistics 606 $aRenewable energy resources 606 $aForestry Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L22016 606 $aBiometrics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I22040 606 $aStatistics for Life Sciences, Medicine, Health Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/S17030 606 $aRenewable and Green Energy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/111000 615 0$aForest management. 615 0$aBiometry. 615 0$aStatistics. 615 0$aRenewable energy resources. 615 14$aForestry Management. 615 24$aBiometrics. 615 24$aStatistics for Life Sciences, Medicine, Health Sciences. 615 24$aRenewable and Green Energy. 676 $a577.3 676 $a577.3 700 $aPommerening$b Arne$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0971576 702 $aGrabarnik$b Pavel$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910349443503321 996 $aIndividual-based Methods in Forest Ecology and Management$92280556 997 $aUNINA
