Fig. 7

Branch diameter and branch death simulated for two trees. (a) Age: 100 years, H: 21 m, D: 25 cm. (b) Age: 100 years, H: 21 m, D: 50 cm. Only one annual shoot out of every five shoots is represented. Solid line: branch diameter model with only fixed effects. Symbols represent branch diameter simulated with additional random annual shoot and branch effects: circle: alive long shoot, dot: dead long shoot, empty triangle: alive short shoot, full triangle: dead short shoot. The line with larges dashes shows the isoprobability for a branch to be dead or alive. The vertical dotted line is for the CR value.
