Effects of species mixing on maximum size–density relationships in Chinese fir (Cunninghamia lanceolata (Lamb.) Hook.)-dominated mixed forests converted from even-aged pure stands

IntroductionDensity management is a key silvicultural tool in management programs that enhances compositional and structural diversity and hence forest growth during the conversion of even-aged pure stands into mixed forests.MethodsTo determine the optimum stand density, a model of maximum size–dens...
