Increasing carbon sinks through forest management: a model-based comparison for Switzerland with its Eastern Plateau and Eastern Alps
The Kyoto Protocol brought a new forest function into focus: forests as carbon sinks. This new forest function may lead to new conflicts, because on the one hand, Switzerland has decided to account for forest ...

Testing the tail–dependence based on the radial component
Throughout this article we assume that the df H of a random vector (X,Y) is in the max-domain of attraction of an extreme value distribution function (df) G with reverse exponential margins. Therefore, the asympt...

Penultimate Approximations in Extreme Value Theory
Under a general von Mises condition and a second order regular variation condition, we derive exact penultimate approximation rates for maxima w.r.t. the variational distance. The approach is not restricted to...

20th Century Carbon Budget of Forest Soils in the Alps
Dendrochronological studies and forest inventory surveys have reported increased growth and biospheric carbon (C) sequestration for European forests in the recent past. The potential of concomitant changes in...

Reliability of differing densities of sample grids used for the monitoring of forest condition in Europe
Concern about the possible deterioration of forest health led to the establishment in the 1980s of inventories of forest condition throughout Europe. International standardisation of the programmes was sought ...
