| description | In forestry there is a long history in the parameterization and use of models to quantify and predict the growth and yield of forest stands, as a fundamental requirement to optimize the application of silvicultural practices for sustainable forest management. The status of Mexico on the use and parameterization of forest models shows significant advances in recent years, which has resulted in the constant generation of biometric tools for the implementation of planning systems and forest management plans. Nevertheless, there is still an urgent need to generate biometric tools to optimize the processes of planning and utilization of forest resources. Currently, in Mexico there is an important collection of models for various purposes, such as volume models, taper models, compatible taper-volume systems, height-diameter models, site index models, biomass, carbon and nutrient content of ecosystems, density management; whole-stand, diameter distributions and individual tree growth models. Given the dynamic environment that involves using biologically more realistic variables to model physiological processes related to forest growth, much remains to be done in forest modeling in Mexico. However, important steps have been taken in the establishment of permanent sampling plots for the periodic measurement of forest growth, and the characterization of structural changes of forest stands. These, coupled with capacity building in biometrics and modeling throughout the country, make it possible to prognosticate important advances in this area in the near future. |

En el ámbito forestal existe una larga historia en la parametrización y uso de modelos para cuantificar y predecir el crecimiento y rendimiento de las masas forestales, como un requisito fundamental para optimizar la aplicación de la silvicultura y el manejo forestal sustentable. La situación en México en el uso y generación de modelos ha avanzado de manera importante en los últimos años, lo que ha resultado en la constante generación de herramientas biométricas para la implementación de sistemas de planeación y ejecución de programas de manejo forestal. Sin embargo, aún existe la necesidad apremiante de generar herramientas biométricas para optimizar los procesos de planeación y aprovechamiento de los recursos forestales. Actualmente, se tiene un acervo importante de modelos para fines diversos, desde modelos de volumen, modelos de ahusamiento, sistemas compatibles ahusamiento-volumen, modelos de altura-diámetro, de clasificación de la productividad de terrenos forestales, de biomasa, carbono y contenido nutrimental de ecosistemas, de control de la densidad, de totalidad del rodal, de distribución diamétrica y de árbol individual. Dado el entorno dinámico que implica modelar procesos fisiológicos relacionados con el crecimiento forestal que involucran variables biológicamente más realistas, aún queda mucho por hacer en la modelación forestal. Sin embargo, se han dado pasos importantes en el establecimiento de sitios permanentes para la medición periódica del crecimiento y cambios estructurales de los rodales forestales, y aunado a la formación de especialistas en biometría y diseminados a lo largo del país, hacen que para un futuro cercano se pronostiquen avances importantes en esta área.
