PhD students in forest sciences are frequently analyzing individual tree- and stand level growth. Response to treatments, natural dynamics, growth trends in response to climate change are examples of topics to be studied. Given that the studied system is far from a controlled experiment and that experimental and sampling design only can reduce some of the variation, multiple factors need to be accounted for when analyzing the data. This requires intensive training and experience in tree and stand growth analyses and extensive understanding of factors affecting these processes. The course will bring PhD students in touch with active researchers in forest growth and yield. Teachers will help students to get a broader understanding of the field and how to solve their specific problems.
