Height-diameter relationship for plantation grown eucalypts in Kenya

Journal of Tropical Forest Science, Volume 8, No. 2, Year 1995

The relationship between height and diameter for estimating individual tree volume in Eucalyptus saligna was investigated. Data on height and diameter were collected from 365 trees from five forest stations. Eight equations previously used in other studies were fitted to the data using least square technique. The equation, ht=1.3+b1dbh+b2dbh2 was found most appropriate for estimating height. -from Author
