The new method applied for deriving yield tables combines measurements of growth and yield trials with growth simulations using a state-of-the-art single-tree growth simulator. By doing so, the new yield tables reflect the current increment level and the recommended graduated thinning from above is the underlying management concept. The yield tables are provided along with methods for deriving the site index and for interpolating between age and site indices and extrapolating beyond age and site index ranges. The inter-/extrapolations are performed traditionally by the rule of proportion or with a functional approach. authors: - family-names: Nuske given-names: Robert email: robert.nuske@mailbox.org orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9773-2061 - family-names: Staupendahl given-names: Kai orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6595-3601 - family-names: Albert given-names: Matthias orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0344-4806 repository: https://rnuske.r-universe.dev repository-code: https://github.com/rnuske/et.nwfva commit: 5f109c91bd1b054668a8c2a2f5ff3d746ac3c62d url: https://github.com/rnuske/et.nwfva contact: - family-names: Nuske given-names: Robert email: robert.nuske@mailbox.org orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9773-2061
