Description of BRIND, a computer model of succession and fire response of the high altitude Eucalyptus forests of the Brindabella Range, Australian Capital Territory
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5568696
The BRIND model, a computer model of the high altitude forests in the Brindabella Range near Canberra (Australian Capital Territory), is documented. The BRIND model simulates a 1/12-ha forest stand by computing the growth of each individual tree in the stand. It considers establishment and death of trees on a tree-by-tree basis using stochastic functions. The model also simulates the effects of prescribed fire and wildfire on the forests. The model currently is restricted to southeasterly facing slopes above 850 m in altitude. This report describes the model and documents the program. Testing of the model and the results are dicsussed elsewhere.
