Adjustment of the forest dynamics and wood production modeling (WEHAM) to the information needs of the greenhouse gas monitoring and of the political consultancy concerning timber supply
Project
Project code: vTI-WOI-08-4.2
Contract period: 01.01.2008
- 31.12.2013
Purpose of research: Inventory & Assessment
The national forest dynamics and wood production modelling (WEHAM) is an important tool for the modelling of carbon sequestration in forest biomass (needed for greenhouse gas reporting) and of future timber production potentials. The further model development includes the implementation of expansion and conversion factors for the assessment of carbon sequestration as well as the development of novel model modules concerning site and climate effects on forest growth.
