Restoring forest resilience: From reference spatial patterns to silvicultural prescriptions and monitoring

► We quantified stand-level pattern in terms of individual trees, clumps, and openings. ► We used AET and Deficit to develop climate analog reference conditions. ► We developed a method to translate reference patterns into prescription guidelines. ► Our ICO method created patterns in agreement with...
