CONSTRUCTION OF MULTISPECIES ALLOMETRIC EQUATIONS: IS THERE A STATISTICAL PALLIATIVE FOR DESTRUCTIVE TREE SAMPLING?

To avoid the problem of destructive tree sampling, we tested an indirect estimation procedure whereby aboveground tree volumes are estimated using affine-transforms of traditional bole volume equations. The study compared the predictive performance of the (1) proposed procedure, (2) allometric above...
