“…To date, it has not been finally clarified how wind and trees interact during a storm event. Field studies carried out in order to gain deeper insights into wind-forest tree interactions (e.g., Mayer 1987Mayer , 1989Gardiner 1995;Peltola 1996;Rudnicki et al 2001;Schindler 2008;Sellier et al 2008;Schindler et al 2010) normally suffer from the fact that they were carried out under wind conditions far below damage-triggering wind characteristics.…”

“…As a draw-back, reconfiguration also changes the velocity and turbulence characteristics of the flow-field. For steady conditions, this eventually leads towards a balance between resisting forces of the plant and acting forces by the flow (Sellier et al, 2008). This change in flow characteristics affects the downstream plants in a community, modifies sediment erosion and deposition patterns, and causes morphological changes.…”

“…In doing so, post-event analyses are complemented by fundamental experimental (Mayer 1987;Gardiner 1992;Schindler 2008) and model-based (Moore and Maguire 2008;Sellier et al model-based approaches, semi-mechanistic models such as ForestGALES (Gardiner et al 2000), HWIND (Peltola et al 1999), and FOREOLE (Ancelin et al 2004) can be distinguished from statistical (empirical) models. Although semi-mechanistic models are useful tools with which to characterise and investigate physical (component) processes, major drawbacks of the current versions are the need for a large number of input parameters, and the rather expensive parameterisation for particular data sets.…”
