| Sammanfattning≠ | The Forest Vegetation Simulator (FVS) is a widely used growth and yield model system developed by the USDA Forest Service that simulates tree and stand development over multiple decades. FVS uses individual-tree growth models (not stand averages) parameterized for different forest regions, allowing realistic simulation of mixed-species, uneven-aged, and disturbed forests. It is used operationally for harvest planning, fire modeling, wildlife habitat assessment, and management scenario evaluation across U.S. forests. | The Stand Density Index (SDI), introduced by Reineke in 1933, is a dimensionless measure of forest density that accounts for both tree number and size. It expresses the number of trees per hectare in a stand, adjusted to a reference quadratic mean diameter (QMD) of 25 cm, providing a standardized metric for comparing tree density across different forest types and sizes. SDI is widely used in forest management to assess stocking levels and to guide thinning decisions. |
