Abstract:Ubame oaks (Quercus phillyraeoides) are intensively processed into Binchoh charcoals in Kochi Prefecture. Quantifying the stem volume is necessary to estimate sustainable usage of the oak. The diameters of stems strongly relate to the specifications of the charcoal as well as the processibility of the stems into charcoals. Therefore, a stem volume model that enables us to estimate the volume for a given stem diameter distribution as well as the volume is desired. In this study, we measured the geometries of th… Show more
