allometryCutini2009: Returns the biomass of a stone pine tree

In mbask/treecm: Centre of Mass Assessment and Consolidation of Trees

Description

Returns total biomass of a stone pine tree (wood and leaves, dry state) in kg given the diameter at breast height, using an allometric equation

Usage

allometryCutini2009(x, diameter)

Arguments

x	a data frame holding diameters of branches
diameter	the name of the column holding diameter of the x data frame, diameters should be in cm

Value

the total biomass of the branch of a stone pine (in kg, dry state)

Note

Use this function at you own risk, it has been validated for trees (ie: >24 cm diameters).

The allometric equation takes the form of a pure quadratic equation
