Comparison of stand density measures for loblolly pine cubic-foot growth prediction

Four expressions of stand density were tested in cubic-foot growth multiple regressions in even-aged, managed stands. Stahelin's percent of full stocking, total basal area, Reine.ke's stand density index, and initial merchantable cubic-foot volume were tested as expressions of density, in combination with age and site in regression analyses of cubic-foot...

Analysis and comparison of nonlinear tree height prediction strategies for Douglas-fir forest.

Using an extensive Douglas-fir data set from southwest Oregon, we examined the (I) performance and suitability of selected prediction strategies, (2) contribution of relative position and stand-density measures in improving tree height (h) prediction values, and (3) effect of different subsampling designs to fill in missing h values in a new stand using a regional...

A simple index of stand density for Douglas-fir.

The expression RD = G/(Dg½), where G is basal area and Dg is quadratic mean stand diameter, provides a simple and convenient scale of relative stand density for Douglas-fir, equivalent to other generally accepted diameter-based stand density measures.
