Performance of Kernel Estimator and Johnson S<sub>B</sub> Function for Modeling Diameter Distribution of Black Alder (<i>Alnus glutinosa</i> (L.) Gaertn.) Stands

Performance of Kernel Estimator and Johnson S<sub>B</sub> Function for Modeling Diameter Distribution of Black Alder (<i>Alnus glutinosa</i> (L.) Gaertn.) Stands

We compare the usefulness of nonparametric and parametric methods of diameter distribution modeling. The nonparametric method was represented by the new tool—kernel estimator of cumulative distribution function with bandwidths of 1 cm (KE1), 2 cm (KE2), and bandwidth obtained automatically (KEA). Jo...
