内容简介：
Forest mensuration provides data on aspects of length, mass and time of areas of forest, individual trees or parcels of felled timber. Such quantitative information is of use to sellers, buyers, planners, managers and researchers within forestry. This book is a revision of a text originally published in 1983, but written for students in Africa. This edition is international in scope, and has been updated to reflect recent advances, particularly with respect to biomass and fodder measurement, sampling with unequal probabilities and growth modelling. The book covers both the theory and practice of forest mensuration and includes a number of worked examples of calculations.
