local.heights

Description

Wrapper function for estimating heights using local allometric equations.

Usage

local.heights(
  xdataset,
  dbh = "D4",
  use.height.constrain = FALSE,
  max.size = 80,
  thresh = 20,
  na.too.big = FALSE,
  laser.cor = FALSE,
  no.plot = TRUE
)

Arguments

xdataset	Object returned by mergefp.
dbh	Character giving the name of the column contining the diameter measurements. Defaults to "D4".
use.height.constrain	Logical. Should height constrain function be used when selecting best model. Defaul is FALSE.
max.size	max.size argument to height.constrain.
thresh	thresh argument to fit.weib.models.
na.too.big	na.too.big argumet to height.constrain.
laser.cor	Logical. Should laser heights be adjusted to correct for bias. Default is FALSE.
no.plot	Logial. Should the best parameters exclude plot and cluster level. Default is TRUE.

Value

Dataframe with best parameters for height-diameter models for each row in xdataset.
