Tree representation

The tree is represented at the individual scale with 7 compartments of carbon :

  1. nonstructural (labile)
  2. leaves
  3. branches
  4. stem
  5. strump
  6. fine roots
  7. coarse roots

It is also described geometrically in 3D by several variables :

  1. Tree height
  2. Crown base height
  3. Tree diameter
  4. Crown Diameter
  5. Fine roots density
  6. Coarse roots biomass
