silviculture
is an R package designed to streamline the
analysis of forestry and forest inventory data, offering a range of
functions for common silvicultural analysis. It aims to support forest
management and research by providing a flexible toolkit for data
manipulation and summary.
You can install the development version of silviculture
from GitHub with:
# install.packages("pak")
::pak("Cidree/silviculture") pak
This package is currently under active development and may still contain bugs or unstable features. I do not recommend using it in real-world applications at this stage, as it may be prone to errors.
The package uses the following terms as function arguments consistently:
biomass
: mass of the tree or part of the tree in
kilograms.
dclass
: the diametric class of the tree. In forestry
we typically work with diametric classes instead of raw diameters.
Therefore, we often create diametric classes with a range of 5 or 10
centimeters.
diameter
: diameter of the tree, typically refering
to the diameter at breast height (1.30 meters) expressed in
centimeters.
h0 (dominant height)
: the mean height of the 100
thickest trees per hectare (Assman); or the mean height of the 100
tallest trees per hectare (Hart).
g (basal area)
: the basal area of the tree, which is
typically expressed by the symbol G
. It is expressed as
squared meters per hectare ( m2/ha).
height
: it refers to the total height of the tree in
meters.
Lorey's height
: tree’s mean height weighted by basal
area.
ntrees
: number of trees (typically of the same
diameter).
species
: Latin name of the tree species
(e.g. Pinus pinaster).
volume
: estimated volume of the tree in cubic meters
(m3).
