Validation of demographic equilibrium theory against tree-size distributions and biomass density in Amazonia
<p>Predicting the response of forests to climate and land-use change depends on models that can simulate the time-varying distribution of different tree sizes within a forest – so-called <i>forest demography</i> models. A necessary condition for such models to be trustworthy is th...
