Morphometric indices can be used to support the understanding of natural forest dynamics. The aim of this study was to describe and evaluate the morphometric and dendrometric characteristics of Araucaria angustifolia, to understanding of the structure of natural Araucaria Forest. The data were obtained in three counties of Santa Catarina State, considering different altitudes of occurrence of the species. We sa...
Height growth analysis presents great importance in forestry, as it expresses site production capacity. Its use is associated with lower adjustment error models to generate estimates to inference with precision and reliability. The present study examined generalized linear models in predicting height growth of Pinus taeda L. depending on the age and diameter at 1.30 m height above ground level in stands in the ...
