Modeling Ecological Constraints on Tropical Forest Management: Reply
回应了一篇评论，指出评论忽略了原文对热带森林生态特性的强调，并澄清了模型中的结构偏差方向、参数取值和敏感性分析问题，认为评论提出的扩展并未推翻原文的核心前提。
This Reply discusses four issues concerning “Modeling Ecological Constraints on Tropical Forest Management: A Comment.” First, the Comment ignores the original article's emphasis on ecological characteristics of tropical forest management. Second, two of the three structural biases toward preservation which the Comment asserts in the article's model actually behave in the opposite direction. Third, the Comment contains confusion about specific parameter values and the use of numerical sensitivity analysis. Last, the Comment's proposed extensions to the original model do not overturn the original article's premise about the importance of spatial–intertemporal modeling in tropical forest management.
