R Documentation

Fuel Consumption of a Harvester per Cubic Meter Harvested Wood (Version #1)

Description

Fuel consumption depends on the average tree volume. For tree diameters at breast height < 15 cm the function gives back NA, because the assumed machine does not work with such small trees. Estimated after \insertCiteBacescu_et_al_2022;textualcare4cmodel.

Usage

fuel_cons_harvester_1(tree_vol, tree_dbh)

Arguments

`tree_vol`	Average standing merchandable wood volume over bark (m³) per harvested tree
`tree_dbh`	Average diameter at breast height (cm) per harvested tree

Value

Fuel consumption of a harvester in liters diesel fuel per m³ harvested wood

Examples

  dbh <- seq(10, 70, 10) # Vector of tree dbh in cm
  vol <- dbh ^ 2 / 1000  # Simple Volume estimate (m³) with Denzin's formula
