Abstract
⺠We model forest recovery using a diffusive logistic growth model (DLG). ⺠We applied the model to quantify forest recovery in Puerto Rico from 1952 to 1991-1992. ⺠The model was moderately accurate and better than a null model in predicting forest recovery. ⺠This is a novel way to study the process of forest recovery in continuous space and time.
