Potential productivity of forested areas based on a biophysical model. A case study of a mountainous region in northern Spain

Abstract: Ann. For. Sci. 66 (2009) • In a first approach, the climatic productivity is assessed by modelling the required parameters using different geostatistical techniques and software supported by GIS. A second approach includes the correction of the former productivity classes considering the different lithological facies. The potential forest productivity model involves the integration of both models.• Finally, data from the National Forest Inventory (NFI) are used to compare the real and potential yield data wi… Show more

“…In addition we calculated the CVP index by Paterson (1956) which has been widely used (Benavides et al, 2009;Chittagong, 2015;Vanclay, 1992) for characterization of growing conditions. As our stands vary widely in latitude and altitude and represent a broad range of mean and amplitude of temperature, precipitation (Fig.…”

“…Además, resulta interesante el cálculo del balance hídrico sobre el de otros índices fitoclimáticos, pues introduce una resolución temporal agregada por meses. Dichos índices solamente emplean algunas cifras significativas para caracterizar las potencialidades del territorio, y habitualmente dan resultados poco acordes con la realidad, a no ser que se den ciertas correcciones (Benavides et al, 2009). Finalmente, en la Figura 10 se aporta una clasificación en la que se diferencian cinco zonas representativas del estado medio del balance hídrico.…”

“…Nowadays, it is still integrated in more complex methodologies to consider the climatic biomass productivity (e.g. : in [15]). This index is based in the assumption that high temperatures and strong precipitations are necessary for the biomass production and it gives an estimation of productivity in m³ of wood/ha·year.…”
