A generalized nonlinear mixed-effects height to crown base model for Mongolian oak in northeast China
Original language description
Tree height to crown base (HCB) is an important variable commonly included as one of the predictors in growth and yield models that are the decision-support tools in forest management. In this study, we developed a generalized nonlinear mixed-effects individual tree HCB model using data from a total of 3133 Mongolian oak (Quercus mongolica) trees on 112 sample plots allocated in Wangqing Forest Bureau of northeast China. Because observations taken from same sample plots were highly correlated with each other, the random effects at the levels of both sample plots and stands with different site conditions (blocks) were taken into consideration to develop a two-level nonlinear mixed-effects HCB model. The results showed that the significant predictors included total tree height, diameter at breast height (DBH), dominant height, and total basal area of all trees with DBH larger than a target tree per sample plot. Modelling the random effects at block level alone led to highly significant correla
