This routine will simply return a “q” value for a stand from the desired basal area and number of trees in the largest class.

dbh.low |
The lower midpoint dbh. |
dbh.up |

dc.width |
The DBH class width (should be integer) for all classes. |
B |
Basal area per acre/hectare. |
N.max |
Number of trees in the largest dbh class. |
units |
Measurement units (character): “English” or “metric”. |

Arguments to be passed on to |
This is very simple, and solves the well-known relation between the diminution coefficient and the stand parameters. Just pass it the diameter ranges, the basal area and number of trees in the largest class to find the “q” value.
The results can be easily corroborated with qDistnShiny
;
e.g., one can generate a stand table from the “q” value (to two
decimal places) with qDistnShiny
.
Note that if uniroot
fails (this is what is used to find
the “q” value), then it is probably because your input parameters
do not make sense.
