Download or read book Estimating the Weight of Crown Segments for Old Growth Douglas Fir and Western Hemlock Classic Reprint written by J. A. Kendall Snell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Estimating the Weight of Crown Segments for Old-Growth Douglas-Fir and Western Hemlock Equations were developed for predicting weight of continuous live crown, total live crown, dead crown, any segment of live crown, and individual branches for old-growth Douglas-fir (pseudotsuga menziesii (mirb.) Franco) and western hem lock (tsuga heterophylla (raf.) Sarg.) trees. A branch method and a ratio method were developed for estimating the weight of crown segments. Equations were based on data from 32 Douglas-fir and 29 western hemlock trees from the Gifford Pinchot National Forest in southwestern Washington. An additional 49 Douglas-fir and 50 western hemlock were selected for validating the models. For predicting weight of a segment of crown, the branch method was less biased and more accurate than the ratio method. The branch method is recommended for felled trees because it more easily accommodates the large amount of break age ln the crown of felled old - growth trees. Keywords: Crown weights, estimates, moisture content (wood), old-growth stands, Douglas-fir, western hemlock. The purpose of this study was to develop and validate estimators to predict total crown weight and weight of any segment of crown for old-growth felled and bucked Douglas-fir and western hemlock trees. Equations were developed for pre dicting weight of continuous live crown, total live crown, dead crown, any seg ment of live crown, and individual branches.
