basal_i: Individual Basal Area and DBH (diameter)

In dendrometry: Forest Estimations and Dendrometric Computations

Individual Basal Area and DBH (diameter)

Description

basal_i computes the basal area of a tree stem (individual), the area of a circle of diameter dbh.
basal2dbh computes the dbh (diameter) based on the basal area.

Usage

basal_i(dbh, circum = NULL)

basal2dbh(basal)

Arguments

dbh	numeric, vector of diameter.
circum	numeric, vector of circumference. Is used only when dbh is not given.
basal	numeric, individual basal area.

Details

If circum is given, dbh is not used.

Value

basal_i returns individual basal area while basal2dbh returns DBH.

Examples

basal_i(dbh = 10)
basal_i(circum = 31.41)
basal2dbh(78.53982)
