Abstract	The main purpose of the present investigation is to examine and compare three methods for diameter distribution modeling in terms of their fitness to predict from stand level variables the diameter distributions of even-aged Austrian black pine (Pinus nigra Arn.) plantations in Bulgaria. The percentile-based projection method involving empirical probability density function based on 12 percentiles was the first method tested. A new modified approach based on the first method was proposed as the second alternative. The third method was the 2-parameter Weibull functional model in which parameters were recovered from the first and the second raw moments and the second central moment of the empirical distributions. The Kolmogorov–Smirnov test was applied to compare the experimental distributions with the predicted ones, and estimation of the error indices was employed to evaluate the total absolute deviation of the predicted numbers from the actual ones by diameter class. The two-parameter Weibull function proved superior to the examined alternative percentile-based projection methods and the newly proposed percentile method, without a driver percentile showed improved precision compared to the classical percentile method (with a driver percentile). The parameters of the Weibull frequency distribution function can be easily recovered from the stand quadratic mean diameter. Consequently, this diameter distribution model could be incorporated as a sub-model for stand horizontal structure characterization within the Stand Density Management Diagram modeling framework.
