A New Tree-Level Multi-Objective Forest Harvest Model (MO-PSO): Integrating Neighborhood Indices and PSO Algorithm to Improve the Optimization Effect of Spatial Structure
2023
Overview
Accurate, efficient, impersonal harvesting models play a very important role in optimizing stand spatial structural and guiding forest harvest practices. However, existing studies mainly focus on the single-objective optimization and evaluation of forest at the stand- or landscape-level, lacking considerations of tree-level neighborhood interactions. Therefore, the study explored the combination of the PSO algorithm and neighborhood indices to construct a tree-level multi-objective forest harvest model (MO-PSO) covering multi-dimensional spatial characteristics of stands. Taking five natural secondary forest plots and thirty simulated plots as the study area, the MO-PSO was used to simulate and evaluate the process of thinning operations. The results showed that the MO-PSO model was superior to the basic PSO model (PSO) and random thinning model Monte Carlo-based (RD-TH), DBH dominance (DOMI), uniform angle (ANGL), and species mingling (MING) were better than those before thinning. The multi-dimensional stand spatial structure index (L-index) increased by 1.0%~11.3%, indicating that the forest planning model (MO-PSO) could significantly improve the spatial distribution pattern, increase the tree species mixing, and reduce the degree of stand competition. In addition, under the four thinning intensities of 0% (T1), 15% (T2), 30% (T3), and 45% (T4), L-index increased and T2 was the optimal thinning intensity from the perspective of stand spatial structure overall optimization. The study explored the effect of thinning on forest spatial structure by constructing a multi-objective harvesting model, which can help to make reasonable and scientific forest management decisions under the concept of multi-objective forest management.
