- W163242321 abstract "The most widely distributed and commercially important forestry crop in New Zealand is Pinus radiata D. Don. Until recently foresters have focussed on maintaining plantation management systems that are highly productive, while remaining sustainable. However, the new era of reduced carbon emissions and carbon trading means forestry systems are now viewed as potential sinks for the sequestration of carbon. Never before has the need to quantify the productive capacity of New Zealand's plantation forests at the national extent been so great. Furthermore, regions of relatively low productivity may become increasingly desirable because these sites require lower capital outlay.In this research, a series of spatial surfaces potentially useful in the modelling and mapping of forest productivity across the national extent of New Zealand have been developed. Modelled surfaces include 15 primary and four secondary terrain attributes; 13 shortwave radiation surfaces, topographically adjusted (one annual and 12 monthly surfaces); and 39 soil water balance model surfaces (one annual and 12 monthly surfaces for fraction of available root zone water storage, available root zone water storage, and drainage). Terrain attributes were developed using a 25-m floating point DEM and are unique and currently the best comprehensive surfaces for the following reasons.(1)Terrain attributes comprehensively encompass the entire country compared with previous piecemeal and site-specific surfaces.(2)Terrain attributes were modelled using a macro-catchment concept that divides the New Zealand landscape into large, naturally draining catchments to avoid the modelling problems associated with edge effects at catchment boundaries.(3)Upslope contributing areas were calculated by switching between an FD8 algorithm that modelled flow divergence in upland regions above defined stream channels and a D8 algorithm used in low-lying areas where modelling of flow convergence is appropriate.(4)Where appropriate, terrain attributes were corrected for undesirable spurious sinks inherent in the 25-m floating point DEM, while retaining naturally occurring sinks in karst environments, depressional lakes and wetlands. This correction provided a continuous surface that modelled flow either to a sink or continuously across the surface until reaching the sea.The soil water balance model, SWatBal, is a dynamic spatial model that can be updated over time as new and improved data become available. SWatbal calculates the fraction of available root-zone water content, available root-zone water content, and drainage for the P. radiata species at a 100-m resolution throughout New Zealand. SWatBal was applied in this study to derive monthly mean soil water balance values, but the model can easily be adjusted to calculate any spatial extent or period. A further advance of SWatBal is the development of reasoned and allocated virtual (RAV) rainfall data. RAV consist of 365 rainfall surfaces representing the normal rainfall distribution on a monthly…" @default.
