The Forest Vegetation Simulator (FVS) is a forest growth and yield model developed by the United States Forest Service and is used by natural resource managers and researchers. FVS is calibrated for specific geographic areas and uses a host of simulation models to forecast forest composition and structure.
NVC community W11 (Quercus petraea - Betula pubescens - Oxalis acetosella woodland) is one of the woodland communities in the British National Vegetation Classification system. It is one of the six communities falling in the "mixed deciduous and oak/birch woodlands" group. This is a widespread upland community of northern and western Britain.
The stages can be characterized by Structural Stage categories, e.g., young forest, or by their Successional Status, e.g., maturing seral. The developing vegetation can also be classified into seral plant associations (designated with $ sign). Note: Tree species codes are: Cw = western redcedar; Hw = western hemlock; Pl = lodgepole pine.
DGVMs generally combine biogeochemistry, biogeography, and disturbance submodels.Disturbance is often limited to wildfires, but in principle could include any of: forest/land management decisions, windthrow, insect damage, ozone damage etc. DGVMs usually "spin up" their simulations from bare ground to equilibrium vegetation (e.g. climax community) to establish realistic initial values for ...

Europe: SynBioSys Europe information system of distributed European TURBOVEG databases relating to plant species, vegetation and landscape data administered by the European Vegetation Survey. When completed this will contain 30 national species lists. [12] France: Sophy, computerized phytosociological information (vegetation relevés). [13]
Levels 3 and 4 are identified by letter codes. Three letter codes are used for Level 3; [4] e.g. "NWG" stands for New Guinea. [24] Where the Level 3 area is subdivided into Level 4 "basic recording units", a two letter code is appended; [25] thus "NWG-IJ" represents Irian Jaya, [26] the Indonesian part of New Guinea.
The simulated growth of plants is a significant task in of systems biology and mathematical biology, which seeks to reproduce plant morphology with computer software. Electronic trees (e-trees) usually use L-systems to simulate growth. L-systems are very important in the field of complexity science and A-life.
