Abstract:

Using the height data of 14 074 sample trees in Beijing,and taking the volume estimates from two-variable tree volume tables as the base,the tree height-diameter regression models and one-variable tree volume tables/equations for 13 tree species were developed,and prediction errors of new and old one-variable tree volume tables were examined and evaluated.The results showed that the relative error (RE) of total volume estimate predicted by the current one-variable tree volume tables for 13 tree species was -1.14%,and the REs of species-specific volume estimates were between -36.59%~47.76%,where the one-variable volume tables for 11 tree species have exceeded the allowable error ±5%;the mean prediction errors (MPE) of new one-variable tree volume equations for 13 tree species were all less than 5%,the total relative errors (TRE) and average systematic errors (ASE) were all within ±1%.The study concluded that only 2 of the 13 old one-variable tree volume tables can be applied,while the other 11 volume tables needed to be revised or updated;and the one-variable tree volume tables developed in this study for 13 tree species met the precision requirement of ministerial standard in forestry.
