A non-stochastic portfolio model for optimizing the transformation of an even-aged forest stand to continuous cover forestry when information about return fluctuation is incomplete
By Erwin Dreyer On 4 June 2017 In Research paper
Non-stochastic portfolio optimization of forest stands provides a good alternative to stochastic mean-variance optimization when available statistical data is incomplete. The suggested approach has a theoretical background in the areas of robust optimization, continuous multicriteria decision-making, and

Xylem traits in European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) display a large plasticity in response to canopy release
By Erwin Dreyer On 4 June 2017 In Research paper
The position of trees in the canopy impacts xylem structure and its inter-annual variation. After canopy release, the increase in the hydraulic conductivity of growth rings was driven by an increase in radial growth in large trees,
