Title: Tree weight estimates for small-sized trees

Journal Article · · Tappi; (United States)
OSTI ID:5087383

This note describes a method for developing accurate equations for determining oven-dried weights of main-stem wood and total (main-stem wood + bark + brench-wood) weight yields of small-sized trees. Separate oven-dried, main-stem wood and total tree weight equations for ages 1-4 for hybrid poplar trees are presented. A comparative summary of selected 4-year-old trees calculated from volume and 3 specific gravity values; the main-stem, wood weight equation; and actual tree values are presented. 2 tables. (DP)
