Table 2 Summary of forest properties after 50 years of simulation, for all densities and stand compositions. Means (± SD) were calculated across all trees in the 100 patches of each simulation
Stand | Species | Mean tree height (m) | Mean tree biomass (t) | Total biomass (t/ha) | Mean stand productivity (t/ha/year) | Mean stand basal area increment (m2/ha/year) | Basal Area (m2/ha) | Density (stems/ha) |
