  2. Tree measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_measurement

    Tree height is the vertical distance between the base of the tree and the highest sprig at the top of the tree. The base of the tree is measured for both height and girth as being the elevation at which the pith of the tree intersects the ground surface beneath, or "where the acorn sprouted."

  3. Tree height measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_height_measurement

    [1] [2] If the tree is growing on the side of a cliff, the base of the tree is at the point where the pith would intersect the cliff side. Roots extending down from that point would not add to the height of the tree. On a slope this base point is considered as halfway between the ground level at the upper and lower sides of the tree.

  4. Tree girth measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_girth_measurement

    Tree girth measurement diagram. Tree girth is a measurement of the circumference of tree trunk. It is one of the most ancient, quickest, and simplest of foresters' measures of size and records of growth of living and standing trees. The methods and equipment have been standardized differently in different countries.

  5. Volume table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_table

    One of the most common ways to calculate volume of a standing tree or of a log is by using the Doyle log rule. This formula uses the small end diameter of a log (D) (in inches) along with the log length (L) (in feet) to estimate the volume of a log. The Doyle log rule on average under estimates the volume of a log. See formula below:

  6. Tree volume measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_volume_measurement

    Tree volume is one of many parameters that are measured to document the size of individual trees. Tree volume measurements serve a variety of purposes, some economic, some scientific, and some for sporting competitions. Measurements may include just the volume of the trunk, or the volume of the trunk and the branches depending on the detail ...

  7. Forest inventory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forest_inventory

    The amount of standing timber that a forest contains is determined from: Age class (Size class). This is a misnomer as in German it is Wuchsklass (Growth class) and properly should be the size of the tree (Size class), which may be limited by shade over it and not necessarily the biological and thus physiological age of the tree. This ...

  8. Tree crown measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_crown_measurement

    In forestry, a tree crown measurement is one of the tree measurements taken at the crown of a tree, which consists of the mass of foliage and branches growing outward from the trunk of the tree. The average crown spread is the average horizontal width of the crown, taken from dripline to dripline as one moves around the crown.

  9. List of largest giant sequoias - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_giant_sequoias

    This tree was the second-largest tree in the world (only the General Sherman tree was larger) until September 2003, when the tree lost a portion of its crown as a result of a fire caused by a lightning strike. [1] [14] This reduced its height from nearly 78 meters (255 ft) to about 70 meters (229 ft). The structurally weakened tree partially ...
