An analysis of data collected by the Native Tree Society (NTS), of over 1800 mature trees found, on average, the top of the tree was offset from the perspective of the surveyor by a distance of 8.3 feet (2.5 m), and therefore was offset from the base of the tree by around 13 feet (4.0 m). [17]
The average girth, height, and crown spread values were calculated for the measurements included in the listing. For the dataset the average height was 87.6 feet, the average girth was 100.1 inches, and the average spread was 54.9 feet. It is not critical that these values be exact for analysis purposes.
The Tule tree has a diameter of 38 feet 1.4 inches (1,161.8 cm) as measured by tape wrap, but because of its irregularity a cross-sectional wood area expressed as a circle gave an effective diameter of only 30 feet 9 inches (937 cm). The base of the tree was mapped in three dimensions using a frame mapping technique.
According to the National Christmas Tree Association, most Christmas trees need about 7 to 10 years to reach the ideal height for decorating, which is typically around 6 or 7 feet. This means that ...
Other researchers have developed models of maximum height for Coast Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii) trees that yield similar estimates of 109–138 meters (357–452 feet), [47] a range that includes the height of the tallest reliably-measured historical (dead) specimen, a 126-meter tree. [47] [48] [49]
The tree had a height of 22.5 metres (74 ft) and a diameter at breast height of 98 centimetres (39 in) (circumference of 308 centimetres (121 in)) when measured in 2000. [70] The tree replaced on the Register a larger champion located in Woodvale Cemetery in Sussex , England, which in 1988 had a height of 27 metres (89 ft) and a diameter of 115 ...
Diameter at breast height (DBH) – measurement of a tree's girth standardized with different countries having different standards they are often at 1.3 meters (about 4.5 feet) above the ground; Form factor – the shape of the tree, based on recorded trees and commonly then given for calculating tree volumes for a given species.
It is an evergreen, long-lived, monoecious tree living 1,200–2,200 years or more. [4] This species includes the tallest living trees on Earth, reaching up to 115.9 m (380.1 ft) in height (without the roots) and up to 8.9 m (29 ft) in diameter at breast height. These trees are also among the longest-living trees on Earth.
