Accurately Measuring the Height of (Real) Forest Trees
Q uick and accurate tree height measurement has always been a goal of foresters. The techniques and technology to measure height were developed long ago—even the earliest textbooks on mensuration showcased hypsometers (e.g., Schlich 1895, Mlodziansky 1898, Schenck 1905, Graves 1906), and approaches to refine these sometimes remarkable tools appeared in the first issues of Forestry Quarterly, Pr...
متن کاملHeight-diameter allometry of tropical forest trees
Tropical tree height-diameter (H:D) relationships may vary by forest type and region making large-scale estimates of above-ground biomass subject to bias if they ignore these differences in stem allometry. We have therefore developed a new global tropical forest database consisting of 39 955 concurrent H and D measurements encompassing 283 sites in 22 tropical countries. Utilising this database...
متن کاملOn the Average Height of b-Balanced Ordered Trees
An ordered tree with height h is b-balanced if all its leaves have a level l with h − b <= l <= h, where at least one leaf has a level equal to h − b. For large n, we shall compute asymptotic equivalents to the number of all b-balanced ordered trees with n nodes and of all such trees with height h. Furthermore, assuming that all b-balanced ordered trees with n nodes are equally likely, we shall...
متن کاملAutomated Low-cost Terrestrial Laser Scanner for Measuring Diameters at Breast Height and Heights of Forest Trees
Terrestrial laser scanner is a kind of fast, high‐precision data acquisition device, which had been more and more applied to the research areas of forest inventory. In this study, a kind of automated low‐cost terrestrial laser scanner was designed and implemented based on a two‐dimensional laser radar sensor SICK LMS‐511 and a stepper motor. The new scanner was named as BEE, which can scan the ...
متن کاملThe Height of Increasing Trees
Increasing trees have been introduced by Bergeron, Flajolet and Salvy [1]. This kind of notion covers several well knows classes of random trees like binary search trees, recursive trees, and plane oriented (or heap ordered) trees. We consider the height of increasing trees and prove for several classes of trees (including the above mentioned ones) that the height satisfies EHn ∼ γ logn (for so...
