Abstract

The principles behind self-thinning laws and stand density management diagrams are examined. Relationships are analyzed based on trajectories of unthinned and thinned stands in a 3-dimensional state space. Limiting self-thinning lines and planes are demonstrated using a dynamic stand growth model for loblolly pine.
