VMP > volumen de madera en pie Explanation: https://semsem.catie.ac.cr/wp-content/uploads/4.-Eduardo.pdf page 15: VMP > volumen de madera en pie (m3ha-1) 21 Artículo: Almacenamiento de carbono y beneficios ... - CATIE repositorio.bibliotecaorton.catie.ac.cr › bitstream › Alma... 1) y volumen de madera en pie (m3 ha-1). Estos productos ..... cacao; las menos comunes solo se utilizaron para el consumo doméstico, como Annona muricata, .... 524±385.1. 3678±2210.1. 1120±627.7. VMP m3ha-1. N/A. 0.4±0.2. 17.6±8.2. El volumen de madera en pie es una medida que refleja la cantidad de madera contenida en troncos y ramas de una superficie forestal o tierra boscosa determinada. Growing stock is a measure of the volume of stemwood in a given area of forest or wooded land, usually measured in solid cubic metres (m3). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 17 mins (2019-08-26 12:07:01 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.fao.org/forestry/17109/en/ 3. Volume estimation Wood volume is a cubic measure of the amount of wood, or wood plus bark, present in an individual tree, group of trees, or stand. Volume is usually measured in cubic meters, but may be measured in other units specific to intended commercial products. Volume is the most widely used measure of wood quantity and is usually estimated for the assessment of economic value or commercial utilization potential. The wood volume of a tree includes stem, branches, stump, and roots. For standing trees, aboveground volume production is generally based on stem wood volume for conifers, but may include branch volume for broad-leaved tree species. Depending on measurement objective and local traditions, measurements or predictions of wood cubic volume may refer to, for example, total stem volume, total tree volume (stem and branches), or volume above a certain merchantable limit. Volume estimates may include or exclude bark and, for aboveground estimates, include or exclude the stump. Volume is always a cubic measure, and usually expressed in cubic meters. Merchantable volume, however, is sometimes expressed in other units related to commercial use (Skovsgaard 2004). Volume is usually estimated for standing trees from such measurements as diameter, or diameter plus merchantable height, using a volume equation or a log rule. Volume may be measured directly on felled trees or logs, but is often estimated from dimensions such as minimum diameter or piece length. Direct measurement of volume is usually done by sectioning the tree into smaller pieces assumed to be cylinders. Volume may be estimated for stacks of logs or processed products by measuring dimensions. In these cases, local knowledge is often needed for appropriate estimation of volume. 3.1 Volume Equation Forms Volume is usually expressed quantitatively as a function of diameter, or diameter and height or merchantable length. Occasionally, other variables such as clear bole length are used to estimate volume. An important consideration is that any variables needed to predict volume should be observed during field data collection. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 days (2019-09-01 15:23:40 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Muchas gracias Dianne. |
