Derivation and analysis of compatible tree taper and volume estimating systems

Compatible taper and volume equations give identical estimates of total volume of trees. Two basically opposite techniques for the construction of compatible systems of estimating tree taper (decrease in diameter with increase in height) and volume were derived and examined statistically. In the f...
