Integrating species functional and architectural traits for improving crown width prediction in subtropical multispecies forests using nonlinear hierarchical models

Crown width (CW) is a critical predictor of individual tree development and forest ecosystem function. Effective CW models are well established for plantations and structurally simpler forests, yet their applicability to diverse, species-rich natural forests remains inadequate. In this study, we ana...
