This behavior does either diameter or height growth as a linear function of GLI.
Parameter name | Description |
---|---|
Simple Linear - Diam Intercept in mm/yr (a) | Intercept of the linear growth function, or growth at no light, in mm/yr, for diameter growth. |
Simple Linear - Diam Slope (b) | Slope of the linear growth function, for diameter growth. |
Simple Linear - Height Intercept in cm/yr (a) | Intercept of the linear growth function, or growth at no light, in cm/yr, for height growth. |
Simple Linear - Height Slope (b) | Slope of the linear growth function, for height growth. |
This behavior calculates an amount of diameter or height growth as:
where
This behavior can be applied to seedlings, saplings, and adults of any species. Any tree species/type combination to which it is applied must also have a light behavior applied. You can choose either a diam with auto height, diam only, or height only version.
