The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of thinning intensity on wood properties, such as heartwood proportion, wood density, and stem form of teak (Tectona grandis L.f.). The thinning trial was established on a teak plantation in a humid tropical site in northern Costa Rica. The moderat...

In the present study, prediction equations for biomass were generated from easily measurable parameters such as diameter at breast height (dbh) and total height. Cross validation was carried out between two localities to test whether equations developed for one locality could be used for other lo...

Management scenarios with rotation lengths of 20 and 30 years were developed for different site qualities (high, medium and low) under two different management options (high individual tree growth versus high stand growth) for teak (Tectona grandis L.f.) in Costa Rica. The scenarios are based on ...
