🌲 Forest Gap Dynamics: Light Competition, Succession and Carbon
An individual-based forest gap model of one hectare in 3D: every tree competes for light through the canopy (Beer-Lambert), storms open gaps, and birch and pine give way to oak, spruce and beech over 150-250 years while carbon accumulates. A planting-density experiment tests the self-thinning law against the model's own prediction.
