Tree allometryUrban forestForesters use diameter at breast height (DBH) to estimate timber volumes, quantify ecosystem services, and predict other biometrics that would be difficult to directly measure. But DBH has numerous problems, including a range of "breast heights" and challenges with applying ...
Glue it to a herbarium sheet with regular glue. Note whether the leaves have an alternate or opposite arrangement on the stems. Record this on the herbarium sheet and the data sheet. Measure the diameter at breast height (dbh) of the tree in inches. ...
Audit planning and risk assessment are performed at the beginning of an audit. AU-C Section 240 requires a discussion (i.e., a brainstorming session) among engagement team members about how and where the entity’s financial statements might be susceptible to fraud. The brainstorming session aim...
Tree hollows are an important habitat resource used by arboreal fauna for nesting and denning. Hollows form when trees mature and are exposed to decay and physical damage. In the absence of excavating fauna, hollow formation can take up to 200 years in Australian temperateEucalyptusforests, making...
Our model focuses only on the objective biodiversity and the weighting in our case is used to identify a more accurate measure of biodiversity potential based on different expert opinions. There were differences between the eight conservation planners in how they prioritized the indicators, but ...
The production focus on these two tree species has greatly simplified the tree species composition of production forest areas, largely to the detriment of broadleaf tree species. The widespread simplification of Sweden's forests has likewise raised concerns regarding the resilience of these forests to...
Terra aims to build an up-to-date map of U.S. forests with detailed information about each tree. To do so, they are using Microsoft Azure (MSFT), high-resolution satellite imagery, and U.S. Forest Service inventory and analysis field data to train machine-learning models to measure ...

Height and diameter are the most common dependent variables for assessing tree biomass, but as height of individual trees has been difficult to measure, most allometric models for tropical forests are based only on tree diameter [51, 52]. Although there are cases where height is the key ...
