how to calculate basal area
|
BA= (3.14 pie) r 2
|
|
initial floristics
|
=species are already established
(weeds, shrubs, trees all present) |
|
how to calculate volume
|
V= 1/2 X (Ab + Au) X L
divided by 10 000 |
|
relay floristics
|
=distinct different species coming in at a time
(weeds-then shrubs-then trees) |

Ht DSH Ab Au V |
dbh= diameter breast height
Ht= height DSH= diameter stump height Ab= basal area at stump Au= basal area at tree top V= log volume |
