Eucalyptus plantations harbor great potential for supporting ecosystem services, but this prospect is weakened under long-term traditional silviculture regimes. To reform these traditional silviculture regimes, we carried out a long-term Eucalyptus eco-silviculture experiment. However, the derived...

The aim of this study was to modify several existing biological models by including several predictive variables that take into account the effect of climatic factors on tree height growth. Tree height was measured from 2007 to 2014 on 18 trees for each of the following species: Eucalyptus...

A common issue in forest management is related to yield projection for stands at young ages. This study aimed to evaluate the Clutter model and artificial neural networks for projecting eucalypt stands production from early ages, using different data arrangements. In order to do this, the changes...

Ongoing changes in climate, and the consequent mortality of natural and cultivated forests across the globe, highlight the urgent need to understand the plant traits associated with greater tolerance to drought. Here, we aimed at assessing key foliar traits, with a focus on the hydraulic component, ...

An efficient and accurate forest sample plot survey is of great significance to understand the current status of forest resources at the stand or regional scale and the basis of scientific forest management. Close-range photogrammetry (CRP) technology can easily and quickly collect sequence images...

Objective: Site classification and quality evaluation of Eucalyptus urophylla × E. grandis plantation in hilly and mountainous region in south-central Guangxi was studied to provide scientific basis for the sustainable management of the plantation for raw material production for pulp-making....

Brazil is a global reference in forest management for wood production (e.g., pulp and solid wood products), and large areas are planted mainly in acidic and poorly fertile soils, with a predominance of Eucalyptus species. Liming is widely adopted in acidic soils in humid tropical regions planted...

Choosing the ideal number of rotations of planted forests under a silvicultural management regime results in uncertainties in the cash flows of forest investment projects. We verified if there is parity in the Eucalyptus wood price modeling through fractional Brownian motion and geometric Brownian...

Individual tree detection (ITD) and crown delineation are two of the most relevant methods for extracting detailed and reliable forest information from LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) datasets. However, advanced computational skills and specialized knowledge have been normally required to...

Since eucalyptus is a fast-growing plant, it offers advantages in comparison to other forest species, and the use of localized irrigation systems can increase yield and reduce time to cutting. The aim of this study was to evaluate two eucalyptus hybrids, growth in crop condition: irrigated and dry...
