Wind loads and competition for light sculpt trees into self-similar structures

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Christophe Eloy from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the research work: Wind loads and competition for light sculpt trees into self-similar structures, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS
• what: 2 To address the limitations of past approaches, the authors propose MECHATREE, a new functional-structural model of tree growth. This model has been used to address the best growth strategy of trees when they compete for light and are subject to wind-induced loads.
• how: Classical allometric laws relating a tree's trunk diameter to its height stem biomass or leaf . . .
