A key to the literature presenting tree volume and taper equations for species in the Pacific Northwest and California

Abstract

Summaries from 49 published articles on tree volume and taper equations are presented for 39 tree species found in California, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, southeast Alaska, Idaho, and western Montana. The summaries are organized by species and then by type of equation (volume or taper). Each summary describes the types of dependent variables predicted by the equations and the geographic location, number of trees, range in DBH, and range in total height for trees in the sample used to develop the equations
