Abstract

    One approach to the analysis of the functioning of a forest is presented. Four postulates are introduced which are considered to characterize the most essential features of forest development. The general structure of models for an individual tree is discussed. It is suggested that tree models should utilize the results of evolutionary theory, according to which the functioning of plants gradually adapts to the environment. This enables certain parameters to be determined by means of mathematical optimization techniques.
