proper forest management needs quantitative and precise estimates of forest stands characteristics. remotely sensed imageries, due to accurate and broad spatial information, has become a cost-effective tool in forest management. classification of forest attributes and generation of thematic maps are among the common applications of remote sensing. the objective of this study was to optimize the...

for maintaining of zagros forests role in wild life, water and soil conservation, the suitable solutions and methods for assessing the existing conditions and planning for management of this forests should be given. to detection of suitable sampling method to study tree diameter at breath height in the northern zagros forest, blake forest, in baneeh region, kurdistan province, and west of iran ...

Since density is considered as one of the most important numerical indices to explain quantitative values of a plant community by affecting on many aspects and activity of ecosystem, on the other hand, awareness about plants distribution pattern in environment is an essential preparation for measurement and study of vegetative cover, therefore, in this research determination of density and dist...

for maintaining of zagros forests role in wild life, water and soil conservation, the suitable solutions and methods for assessing the existing conditions and planning for management of this forests should be given. to detection of suitable sampling method to study tree density in the northern zagros forest, blake forest, in baneeh region, kurdistan province, and west of iran was selected. 40 s...

in order to evaluate the possible correlation between the tree density and the human population density, the forested area in nav asalem district located in guilan province was selected. the descriptors of tree number and basal area per hectare as well as the stand density index were used to determine the tree density, which was conducted from a 2014 forest inventory including 62 cluster (558 p...

Random forests are a very effective and commonly used statistical method, but their full theoretical analysis is still an open problem. As a first step, simplified models such as purely random forests have been introduced, in order to shed light on the good performance of random forests. In this paper, we study the approximation error (the bias) of some purely random forest models in a regressi...

the optimum road spacing has been studied by many researches. it is an important step of forest road network planning. the goals of this study are determining the optimum road spacing in kheiroudkenar forest of nowshahr in northern iran and study of effect of kind of skidder on skidding cost and road spacing. continues time study method was used to determine the production rate of taf and timbe...
