This research was conducted to investigate spatial variability and estimate tree attributes in a plantation forest in the Caspian region of Iran using geostatistical analysis. Sampling was performed based on a 50m?125m systematic grid in a maple stand (Acer velutinum Boiss) 18 years of age using circular samples of 200m2 area. Totally, 96 sample plots were measured in 63 hectares and 14.25 he...

BACKGROUND: Super absorbent polymers (SAP) by increasing the capacity of water storage and nutrition materials, reduction of wasting water and evaporation from the surface of soil improve crop production under water stress condition. Bio-fertilizers have the significant advantages to chemical fertilizers; for instance, they do not produce toxic and bacterial substances in the f...

A method of predicting two forest stand structure attrithe ability of the regression equations to predict the stem butes, basal area and aboveground biomass, from meamap plot’s stand structure attributes was then evaluated. surements of forest vertical structure was developed and The QMCH was found to explain the most variance in tested using field and remotely sensed canopy structure the chron...

Allometric models to estimate biomass components such as stem mass Ms, foliage mass Ml, root mass Mr and aboveground mass Ma, were developed for the palm species Euterpe precatoria Mart., which is the most abundant tree species in the Amazon. We harvested twenty palms including aboveand below-ground parts in an old growth Amazonian forest in Brazil. The diameter at breast height D ranged from 3...

The article presents the results of using biometric methods for assessing gene pool (using example indian pea). variation traits model population pea, as well correlation coefficients and factor loadings on variables, is considered. includes 25 samples different ecological geographical origin. nursery was founded according to scheme a one-factor complex. Statistical indicators sample, signs wer...

This study compares methods to estimate stem volume, stem number and basal area from Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) data for 68 field plots in a hemi-boreal, spruce dominated forest (Lat. 58°N, Long. 13°E). The stem volume was estimated with five different regression models: one model based on height and density metrics from the ALS data derived from the whole field plot, two models based on sim...

Stem diameter at breast height (DBH) and tree height (H) are commonly used measures of tree growth. We examined patterns of height growth and diameter growth along a stem using a 20-year record of an even-aged hinoki cypress (Chamaecyparis obtusa (Siebold & Zucc.) Endl.) stand. In the region of the stem below the crown (except for the butt swell), diameter growth rates (ΔD) at different heights...
