Fractal forest: Fractal geometry and applications in forest science. Forest Service general technical report
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6940960
Fractal geometry is a tool for describing and analyzing irregularity. Because most of what we measure in the forest is discontinuous, jagged, and fragmented, fractal geometry has potential for improving the precision of measurement and description. The study reviews the literature on fractal geometry and its applications to forest measurements.
