✦ Synopsis
This special issue of Biomass and Bioenergy contains articles presented or discussed within the frame of part 1 of the workshop. It appears from the different outputs that two approaches in the development of modelling are needed. A relatively high speed approach, involving already existing simulation models, could be used and further developed to create a base for simulating biomass production. A relatively low speed approach, concentrating on the numerous gaps still existing in our knowledge, is of interest in making the former models predictive for different species, management, site, etc. The latter models then need (i) data from operational and process oriented research experiments, and (ii) development of submodels for one or several processes which are not fully understood but are of most importance (e.g.
