General description
- Description: Static stand model for the main pure stands of coniferous and deciduous species in Castilla y Le贸n (Spain)
- Target Species: Pinus sylvestris, Pinus pinaster (codes:
21, 26) - Application Region: Castilla y Le贸n (Spain)
Technical characteristics
- Model Level: Stand
- Allows Projection: No
