Forest Dendrometry

This document presents 02 Measuring In forestry the tools to describe a tree or stand are diverse depending on their utility and the purpose of use. Dendrometric instruments are based on silviculture from which the different dendrometric characteristics of the tree and stand (diameter height basal area etc.) are determined. On the other hand there are some multiple-use instruments which thus represent the backbone of forestry in general.Tree and stand dendrometric Dendrometryisgenerally limited to describing the characteristics of trees (diameter height shape age volume... etc.) and stands (height density average volume increment factor... etc.).It is used as much in the field of timber harvesting and marketing as in silviculture and forest management. Dendrometry enables young apprentices know the tools and techniques for measuring trees build growth models of a forest stand and determine the productivity of the stand.
