Modelling Percentile Based Basal Area Weighted Diameter Distribution
In percentile method, percentiles of the diameter distribution are predicted with a system of models. The continuous empirical diameter distribution function is then obtained by interpolating between the predicted values of percentiles. In Finland, the distribution is typically modelled as a basal-area weighted distribution, which is transformed to a traditional density function for application...
متن کاملPercentile Based Basal Area Diameter Distribution Models for Scots Pine, Norway Spruce and Birch Species
Information about diameter distribution is used for predicting stand total volume, timber volume and stand growth for forest management planning. Often, the diameter distribution is obtained by predicting the parameters of some probability density function, using means and sums of tree characters as predictors. However, the results have not always been satisfactory: the predicted distributions ...
متن کاملPerformance of Percentile Based Diameter Distribution Prediction and Weibull Method in Independent Data Sets
Diameter distribution is used in most forest management planning packages for predicting stand volume, timber volume and stand growth. The prediction of diameter distribution can be based on parametric distribution functions, distribution-free parametric prediction methods or purely non-parametric methods. In the fi rst case, the distribution is obtained by predicting the parameters of some pro...
متن کاملStand Diameter Distribution Modelling and Prediction Based on Richards Function
The objective of this study was to introduce application of the Richards equation on modelling and prediction of stand diameter distribution. The long-term repeated measurement data sets, consisted of 309 diameter frequency distributions from Chinese fir (Cunninghamia lanceolata) plantations in the southern China, were used. Also, 150 stands were used as fitting data, the other 159 stands were ...
متن کاملImproving the Accuracy of Predicted Basal-Area Diameter Distribution in Advanced Stands by Determining Stem Number
The objective of this paper was to study to what extent the accuracy of predicted basalarea diameter distributions (DDG) could be improved by means of stem number observations in advanced (H > 10 m) stands. In the Finnish forest management planning (FMP) inventory practice, stem number is determined only in young stands; in older stands stand basal area is used. The study material consisted of ...
