Relationship Of Leaf Area And Dry Weight To Height And Volume In A Young Plantation Of Northern Red Oak

Estimates of dry weight and leaf area for young plantation-grown hardwoods are frequently needed to fully assess responses to cultural treatment. The objective of this study is to determine the relationship of dry weight and leaf area to less expensively measured characteristics such as height and volume (D2H). This study reports on such relationships for a 5-year-old northern red oak (Quercus rubra L.) planting containing a wide range of size classes.
