An individual-tree diameter growth model for managed uneven-aged oak-shortleaf pine stands in the Ozark Highlands of Missouri, USA

▶ Individual-tree, mixed-effect models were effective at predicting diameter growth. ▶ Models highlight the importance of competitive position as a growth predictor. ▶ Standwise calibration improved model prediction. ▶ Single tree and three tree calibration yield a similar quality of prediction. The...
