Résumé
CroBas-PipeQual is a process-based forest growth model designed to study foliage development and how growth processes relate to changes in wood quality. As such, CroBas-PipeQual is of interest as a component model in a forest level decision support model for value assessment. In this thesis, the version of CroBas-PipeQual calibrated for jack pine (Pinus banksiana Lamb.) in Québec, Canada was qualitatively evaluated for use in forest management decision-making. Then, sensitivity analyses and Bayesian melding were used to create and calibrate a stand-level version of CroBas-PipeQual to local empirical height yield models in a hybrid-modelling approach. Key findings included: 1. Height predictions were most sensitive to input values and to parameters related to net photosynthesis; 2. Model performance was improved by varying two net-productivity parameters with site quality; and 3. Model performance needs further improvement before CroBas-PipeQual can be used as a component of a forest-management decision tool.
