Prof. Zhang Huiru has been engaged in forest sustainable management research for a long time, mainly involving forest growth simulation, multi-objective management decision optimization, natural forest management and so on. He used dynamic programming method to solve the problem of automatic control of interval in the management optimization of plantation. He applied nonlinear joint estimation method to solve the compatibility problem of forest biomass model. Based on long-term research accumulation, he proposed modern forest management principles and the theory and technical system of accurate forest quality improvement. He made many innovative achievements, such as forest biomass measurement technology combined with forest resource survey, technical system and model of ecological-based harvesting for natural forest, growth model system and multi-objective management planning technology for northeast natural forest, forest multi-objective management spatial planning technology for management unit level, key technology and application model of forest health management. It has enriched the theory and technology system of forest sustainable management in China.
