Foreword

ENFOR is the acronym for the Canadian Gov­ernment's E lergy from the FORest (ENergie dela FORet) program of research and developmentaimed at securing the knowledge and technicalcompetence to facilitate in the medium to longterm a greatly increased contribution from forestbiomass 10 our nation's primary energy produc­tion. This program is part of am uch larger federalgovernment initiative to promote the develop­ment and use of renewable energy as a means ofreducing dependence on petroleum and othernon-renewable energy sources.

The Canadian Forestry Service (CFS) adminis­ters the ENFOR Biomass Production programcomponent which deals with such rorest~oriented

subjects as inventory, harvesting technology, sil­viculture and environmental impacts. (The othercomponent, Biomass Conversion, deals with thetechnology of converting biomass to energy orfuels, and is administered by the Renewable

Energy Branch of the Department of Energy,Mines and Resources). Most Biomass Productionprojects, allhough developed by CFS scientists inthe light of E FOR program objectives, are car­ried out under contract by forestry consultantsand research specialists.

Biomass equations were developed for 22 com­mercial species covering all of B.C. except thenorthern part of the province and the QueenCharlotte Islands, based on 1155 sample trees.Trees were destructively sampled and equationsof Ihe forl11 y = bo + b,D'll and l11ultiple linearequations based on 0, 1-1 and V and their interac­tions were developed. Both forms of equationgive reasonably accurate and precise predictions,and choice depends on the use to which the bio­mass equations will be put.

Introduction

Love (1980) has indicated the potentially greatcontribution of forest biomass to Canada's futureenergy supply. In British Columbia logging resi­due has been identified as a potentially viableenergy source (McDaniels 1981). However, aprerequisite to realizing this potential is theavailability of an adequate forest biomass inven­tory (Bonner 1979; Dobbs 1981).

Many studies altempling to estimate biomass ofBritish Columbia tree species have been conduct­ed (Stanek and State 1978) but in most casestheir scope has been local ralher than regional.Tree componenls have been defined in variousways for different studies, and various predictionequation models and units for coefficients(Imperial liS metric) have been used.

The objective of the study on which this paper isbased was 10 develop a generalized set of equa·lions which can be used in conjunction with theexisting provincial forest inventory to estimate

the quantity of forest biomass available in BritishColumbia. More specifically, the objective was todevelop whole-tree and tree component biomassrelationships for 22 native tree species and varie­ties (Appendix D), applicable to second-growthstands.

The regression equations were to be applicable,at least as a first approximation, on a regionalbasis. Independent variables were to be restrictedto those conventionally measured in forestinventories, namely diameter at breast height l

outside bark (Dbh) and height; and tree compo­nent relationships were Lo be conducive tosimple mathematical summation, as discussed byEvert and Alemdag (1979) and Kozak (1970).Although Dbh and height were the only mea­sured variables used in developing the regressionequations l other tree, stand and site informationwas collected for each sample tree in order to pro­vide a data base for future analyses.

Sample Allocation and Sample TreeSelection

Methods

due to budgetary constraints.

The initial allocation of samples to tree specieswas proportional to the provincial volume inven­tory, but was later modified so that each tree spe­cies had forty or more sample trees in order toproduce biomass relationships of the same orderof significance and confidence for each species.Ideally, sample allocation would have consistedof an equal number of randomly-selected obser­vations of biomass over the range of interest foreach fixed value of the independent variables(Demaerschalk and Kozak 1974). Furthermore,samples should have reflected a wide range ofstand and site conditions and geographic variabil­ity so that the prediction equations would be ap­plicable on a broad regional or provincial scale(Cunia 1979). However, technically rigoroussample tree selection and optimal sample alloca­tion schemes, as discussed by Demaerschalk andKozak and Cunia (1979), were not practicable

Given the constraints, a more pragmatic ap­proach was adopted as follows:

I) A target number of sample trees was designat­ed for each species.

2) Provincial volume inventory data were exam­ined to determine a range of Dbh and heightclasses for each species.

3) Sample trees were allocated equally to eachDbh and height class within species.

4) Where extra samples remained followingequal allocation to each class, the remainingsamples were allocated to the extreme classes.

5) The number of trees in each size class for aspecies were then allocated to variousgeographic areas.

Page 8: 1+ Government of Canada Gouvernement du Canada Canadian ... · Resume Des equalions de masse onl 10110 elablies pour I 155 arbres, de 22 essences comrnerciales, repartis dans loute

6) As sampling progressed, the number of treesallocated to a size class for a species was,when necessary, reallocated, using the samegeneral approach as noted above, to reflectthe range of tree size actually occurring in ac­cessible stands.

Geographic sampling areas were defined mainlyby administrative boundaries and access. Becauseof high costs, no sampling was conducted on theQueen Charlotte Islands, in the north coastalregion, in the Peace River region or in the north­western part of the province north of Highway16. Another ENFOR biomass inventory projectin the Yukon Territory provides data applicableto some of northern British Columbia (Massie1983).

Additional sampling restrictions were thatsample trees were to be in the codominant crownclass, forked trees were avoided except in somedeliquescent hardwoods, and trees with dead orbroken tops were avoided. Open-growing or wolftrees which are not representative of a commongrowth habit for a species were avoided and treeswith decay indicators and trees infested with barkbeetles or defoliating insects were also avoided.Jt was necessary to include some sample trees inthe intermediate crown class for shade-tolerantspecies, so that smaller diameter classes were ad­equately represented.

Tree Saml,ling Procedures

Standards and procedures for sampling individualtrees are gi ven in Appendix C and closely followthose presented by Alemdag (1980). The bio­mass components defined for this study areshown in Figure I. They include bole wood andbark from ground level to a 2.5-cm bole diame­ter, three live branch size classes, and deadbranches and foliage. Cones were included withtheir appropriate branch size class for fresh massdeterminations but were excluded for oven-drymass. Only fresh mass was determined for deadbranches. Underground biomass was not sam­pled.

Trees were cut at a point 30 em above the pointof germination, then limbed and bucked at inter­vals of 2m or less. The total fresh mass of thebole and crown components was determined di­rectly by weighing in the field, except for large

7

bole sections. These were measured for insideand outside bark volume, and mass was later cal­culated by applying mass-to-volume ratios deter­mined from sample discs. The above-groundmass of the stump was determined in a similarmanner. Volume of stem sections was calculatedby the Smalian formula; volume calculation as­sumed a cylin(irical shape for stumps. Samplediscs were taken from each stem section to deter­mine the ratios of fresh and oven-dry wood andbark mass.

Live branches (including the top) were sortedinto three basal diameter classes and weighed todetermine the total fresh mass in each class. Tworandomly selected branches from each of thebasal diameter classes were sub-sampled to deter­mine the proportion of each of the three branchsize classes within a basal diameter class. Themass of dead branches was determined directlyby weighing in the field.

The fresh mass of bole sample discs and crownsubsamples was measured at the field base campwithin 24 hours of cutting to determine the ratiosof fresh wood mass to bark mass and the propor­tion of fresh mass in each of the three branch sizeclasses. For fresh mass, foliage was included withthe smallest branch size class but was later cal­culated separately based on dry mass ratios.

Each sample was labelled and stored at the basecamp until shipment to the laboratory in Van­couver (at one- to two-week intervals). Just priorto shipment, samples were sealed in plastic bags.Transit time to the laboratory was usually one ortwo days.

Other Data Collected

Diameter at breast height outside bark (Dbh),total tree height (H), crown width (CW) andcrown length (CL) were measured and recordedfor each sample tree. Dbh was measured to thenearest 0.1 cm and H, CW and CL to the nearest0.1 m. Crown width was recorded as the averageof two orthogonal axes measured at the base ofthe live crown. Age was recorded for each sampletree based on a ring count at a height of 30 cmand B.C. Ministry of Forests age correctiontables. Other information of interest which wasrecorded included the following:

The B.C. Ministry of Forests has developed asystem of biogeoclimatic zones which differsfrom the one originally developed by Krajina.Since maps were not available for the Ministry ofForests' system covering all areas of this study.Krajina's system was used. Those wishing to re­late the sample lrees to other classifications ormaps can do so using the information on lati­tude, longitude and elevation recorded for eachsample tree.

Laboratory Processing

Upon arrival at the laboratory, samples werepromptly unpacked and laid out on a trestle tablefor preliminary drying at ambient temperature.Samples were then dried in large, force9·airdrying ovens equipped with constant temperaturecontrols. Drying times ranged from 24 to 48hours depending on the moisture content, sizeand type of sample. After removal from theovens, the samples were allowed to cool for 15minutes before weighing.

The immersion technique outlined in AppendixC was used to determine the volumes of oven-drywood and bank for sample discs from large bolesections.

Data Processing

Entries on the data form for each tree werechecked at the time of laboratory processing andagain when all sampling for the year had beencompleted. Errors, omissions or inconsistencieswere corrected, sometimes by reference to theoriginal field notes ancl samples. Following visualchecking, data were keypunched, verified andtransferred to computer tape. The data were thenprocessed by a computer program which re­edited the data, produced a tabulated output ofall data and biomass measurements for each tree,and produced a computer file for statisticalanalyses. Complete data printouts were producedduring the winter following each field season.Data editing included calculation of various re­sults for each biomass sample, sllch as the per­centages of fresh wood, dry wood, bark, foliage,and the density. Inconsistent results or resultsoutside pre-determined ranges were nagged forfurther checking.

Regression Analysis

Preliminary analysis was conducted based on thedata sets collected during the 1980 field seasonfor ponderosa pine and western larch usingsimple and multiple linear and logarithmicmodels with Dbh, H, D2H, CW and CL as inde­pendent variables. During 1982, detailed prelimi­nary analyses of large data sets for five specieswere conducted; simple and multiple linear aswell as nonwlinear models were tested using Dbh,H, volume(V) and their interactions as indepen­dent variables. Volume as used in the discussionof regression equations refers to the total insidebark wood volume predicted from B.C. Ministryof Forests metric volume equations (Forest In­ventory Division 1976). Based on the results ofthe detailed analysis, final regression equationswere produced.

Both stepwise and elimination procedures wereused in computing multiple linear regressions.Equations were first fitted to all components.These equations were studied and a compromiseequation giving the best overall results for allcomponents was selected. This compromiseequation was then fitted for all components with­out eliminating any of the previously selectedvariables.

Many potential independem variables were es­sentially interchangeable with respect to theireffect when added to the model. In such cases,variables were selected to be consistent withinsimilar groups of tree species or varieties. Forexample, all Pill/ls species use V and D' and bothTS/lgaspecies use V, D'Vand DHV.

In order to use volume as an independent vari­able. the appropriate Ministry of Forests volumeequations must be used. In most cases this re­quires relating a sample tree 1O a volume equation

by forest invenlOry zone and age class. For exam­ple there are three volume equations for westernhemlock: two for the Coast and one for the Inter­ior. The two Coastal equations are for ages up to

120 years and greater than 120 years; the Interiorequation covers all age classes. In other cases(such as with Interior Picea and, to some degree,Abies) species are aggregated in the volume equa­tions. No volume equations are available formountain hemlock and shore pine. so the equa­tions for western hemlock and lodgepole pine, re­spectively. were used.

Results and Discussion

A total of 1155 trees were sampled and 20730samples were processed. Generally 40 or moretrees were sampled for each species or variely;the actual number ranged from 39 for mountainhemlock to 105 for white spruce. Information onthe number of sample trees and the range, meanand median Dbh, height and age for each speciesor variety is shown at the top of each speciestable in Appendix A. Approximate sampling loca­tions are shown in Figure 2.

Preliminary analysis conducted during 1981 ofthe data sets for ponderosa pine and westernlarch suggested that simple linear equationsusing D'H gave good predictions of bole wood,bark and total mass but often performed poorlyfor crown components. In order to confirm theseresults and to select regression models that suitthe objectives of the study, a more detailed analy­sis was conducted during 1982. Data were ana­lyzed for five species: white spruce, lodgepolepine, subalpine fir, western hemlock and westernred cedar. These species give a representativecross section of variability in stem, branch andfoliage characteristics for the coniferous speciesin this study. Hardwood species were not ana­lyzed because sufficient data were not availableat the time. Analyses were conducted on oven­dry biomass data only.

Figure 2. Approximate sampling areas

the B.C. Ministry of Forests should be used. Thevolume equations are based on a total of 34 641sample trees collected over a wide range of sizeclasses, stand conditions and geographic areas~

the number of sample trees for each equation ap­plicable to this study ranges from 302 for yellowcedar to 4452 for white spruce (Forest InventoryOi vision 1976). The volume equations are usedto test the potential value of V as an independentvariable.

that it should provide better estimates of thecoefficients (b" b" and b,). Broadly speaking,the use of V can be thought of as analogous totwo-phase sampling where the volume sample re·presents the first phase and the biomass samplesare the subsample. Of course, the analogy is notstrictly correct because the trees sampled for bio­mass in this study are not a subset of the B.C.Ministry of Forests' volume samples.

Used in this way, V provides a point estimatethat is a nonlinear transformation, similar toO'H. In fact, the volume equations are derivedfrom the general model:

(6)

Even where no clear statistical improvement canbe seen from using V. it may give more accuratepredictions than D2H when biomass equationsare applied to an independent sample (if V is. infact, a better predictor of true volume). How·ever, this cannot be tested from analysis of thedata on hand.

and O'H is a special case of (6) where b, = I, b2

= 2 and b, = I. A potential advantage of V isSimple linear equations using D2H as the inde­pendent variable (models 1 and 2) are attractive

Page 13: 1+ Government of Canada Gouvernement du Canada Canadian ... · Resume Des equalions de masse onl 10110 elablies pour I 155 arbres, de 22 essences comrnerciales, repartis dans loute

because of their simplicity. However, the rela~

tionship between biomass of components andD2 1-1 for the species studied is not linear and doesnot pass through the origin (i.e., an intercept isrequired). Plotting of residuals and comparisonof standard error and confidence Jimits indicatethat models I and 2 are not as precise as 3, 4 and5.

Multiple linear equations based on D, Handtheir interactions (model 3) are much more pre­cise than models I and 2. All five independentvariables are not needed for every species; two orthree are often sufficient. However, all of thesame independent variables should be retainedfor all biomass components within a species sothat simple additivity of the coefficients is possi­ble (Kozak 1970).

Non-linear regression equations such as model 4perform comparably or nearly as well as model 3for most species. However, calculations and in­terpretations are more complex, and regressioncoefficients for the components are not additive.

Using V as an independent variable together withD, H and/or various interaction terms (model 5)

12

results in a multiple linear equation which is, formany species and components, more precisethan any of the other models tested. As in model3, not all independent variables are needed for allspecies but, within a species, the same variablesare retained for all biomass components to allowsimple additivity.

Comparisons of standard errors of the estimatewere made for all five species and all oven-drybiomass components. On this basis, models 3, 4and 5 are superior to models 1 and 2; models 3and 4 are approximately comparable and model 5is the best. This is illustrated in Table 1 whichcompares the standard errors for several biomasscomponents for white spruce based on a sampleof 100 trees; comparisons for the other four spe­cies are similar.

The Contribution of Volume as anIndependent Variable

Comparing models 3 and 5, the gains from in­cluding V and its interactions, in addition 10 0and H, appear to be marginal for some compo-

Final Regression Anal)'sis

Following the preliminary analyses, two regres­sion models were chosen: a simple linear equa­tion with an intercept using D2H as the indepen­dent variable (model 2) and a multiple linearequation using V, D, H and interactions (model5). Both models (2 and 5) were computed for the22 tree species and varieties (Appendix D). forall components for both fresh and oven-dry bio­mass (only results for oven-dry biomass are

reported here). A detailed summary of the re­sults, including equations, is presented in Appen­dix A. Coefficients of determination and 95%confidence limits (for average observations, atthe mean) expressed as a percentage or the meanfor oven-dry total and foliar mass of each speciesare summarized in Table 3. Independent varia­bles selected for multiple regression are shown inTable 4.

In general, both simple linear and multiple linearmodels give good results for prediction of bolecomponents and total biomass. The multiplelinear equations show some improvement in pre­cision over simple linear equations as indicatedby the relative efficiencies (RE) shown in Table5. The degree of improvement varies accordingto species and component but occurs most con­sistently in crown components. However, consid­erable improvements in precision are also shownin bole wood for western red cedar, ponderosapine and red alder and somewhat lesser gains forwestern hemlock, Pacific silver fir, western larchand black spruce. Some improvemenls are alsoevident in the bark component for both hemlockspecies and red alder.

White birch is the only species in which no gainis evident in any component from using model(5). Atthe other extreme, species such as Coastal

a R' is rounded to the nearest 0.01 (except for total biomass for Coastal Douglas-lir which would round 10 1.00) and CLto the nearest 0.1%; CL in Kg is given in Appendix A.

Douglas-fir, Sitka spruce, western red cedar,western hemlock, white spruce, western larch,subalpine fir and red alder show generally goodgains. The remaining species show some reasona­ble gains in one or more components~ for exam­ple, Interior Douglas-fir shows considerable gainin the foliage component, lesser gains in branchclasses 2 and 3 and a somewhal smaller gain intotal biomass. Evaluation of the results for somespecies such as mountain hemlock and yellowcedar is more difficult because, although gainsare made for some components, RE is less for

total biomass.

Lack of improvement from using model 5 isprobably related 10 how closely Ihe biomass sam­ples represent the R.C. Ministry of F·orests'volume samples. In the case of mountain hem­lock, there is no specific volume equation availa­ble (western hemlock volume equations areused). All Abies species are lumped together inthe volume equations and the volume samplesare dominated by Pacific silver fir on the coastand subalpine fir in the interior; this may explain

The 95% confidence limits expressed as a per­centage of the mean for multiple linear equationsare generally in the 5-6% range for total oven-drybiomass and 15-20% for foliage, Confidencelimits are more variable and offen much greaterfor the three branch classes. Branch class I is par­ticularly variable because zero values occur ortenfor all species; confidence limils for oven-drybranch class I generally range from 20-30%.Higher values oflen occur but these representvery small portions of 10lal crown or total above­ground biomass. For example, the confidencelimits for black spruce are about 90% but thisrepresents, in absolute terms, an error of 0.8 kg(at the mean); a similar situation exists for west­ern red cedar, Pacific silver fir and grand fir andbranch class 3 in ponderosa pine and blackcottonwood.

As a further test of the applicability of theequations, the data sets for white spruce (105trees) and lodgepole pine (98 trees) were eachdivided into (wo samples, regression equationswere computed for each sample and predictionswere compared with the data for the sampleswilhin each species. The results of these cross­validations supported the magnitude and 95%confidence limits reported in Table 3 and Appen­dix A.

the lack of improvement in grand fir from usingthe multiple linear model with V. The lack ofim­provement for other species such as yellow cedarand white birch is less clearly explained.

Coefficients of determination for total oven-drybiomass are generally 0.95 or greater except forInterior Douglas-fir (r' = 0.84, R' = 0.88),western larch (r' = 0.88, R' = 0.94), lodgepolepine (r' = 0.93, R' = 0.96) and trembling aspen(r' = R' = 0.94); values for bole wood and barkare similar but often slightly less. Values forcrown components are less and extremely vari­able, ranging from about 0.26 for branch class 2in trembling aspen to 0.9 I for branch class 2 insubalpine fir. The extreme value of r' ~ R' =

0.00 for branch class 3 in ponderosa pine shownin Appendix A is a result of the scarcity of smallbranches on the sample trees; most samples hadno branches in that size class and branch class 3generally represents less than 1% of the total drymass of the crown.

A major criterion used to evaluate difTerent re­gression models and the use of V as an indepen­dent variable is precision, expressed by SEE,95% confidence limits and RE. Choice of a mostsuitable model or equation cannot be made sim­ply on the basis of a single criterion. Other criteriaused to assess regression models in this studywere the following:

I) additivity of coefficients

2) precision - determined by plotting andexamining residuals

3) accuracy - R' and confidence limits (good­ness offit) - indicated by adjusted R' values

4) degeneracy - holV well the equations predictbiomass near the extremes of the sampledtree sizes.

Addith'ity of Coefficients

The requirement of addilivity effectively ruledout the use of logarithmic or non-linear regres·sion models. Adjusted, weighted linear modelsdescribed by Lavigne and van Nostrand (I981)were not calculaled because of the considerablevariability in the behaviour of most biomasscomponents. Also, since predictions of lotalmass, bole wood mass and bark mass, even forunweighted, simple linear equations, are ade-

qualely precise and reasonably accurate while es­timates of crown components are relativelyimprecise, it seems that little would be gained byadjusting the regression coefficients for crowncomponents such as foliage. Therefore, themodels of choice were unweighted simple andmultiple linear models. All models suggested bythis study are additive since the same variableswere used for all components within a given spe­cies (or variety). However, recenl1y reported al­ternative methods of obtaining addilivily (Cunia

Page 18: 1+ Government of Canada Gouvernement du Canada Canadian ... · Resume Des equalions de masse onl 10110 elablies pour I 155 arbres, de 22 essences comrnerciales, repartis dans loute

and Briggs 1984; Chiyenda and Kozak 1984)could be applied.

Precision

Examination of residuals shows that the assump­tions of homogeneolls variance and normalityare not l11et by the simple linear equations or, inmany cases, by the multiple linear equations.Western larch, ponderosa pine and Engelmannspruce are examples of species showing consid­erable heterogeneity of variance (Appendix A)with either regression model. Therefore, theSEE and confidence limits reported should beregarded as approximations. However, cross vali­dation of the data for white spruce and lodgepolepine indicates that the reported confidence limitsare realistic.

Relatively low R2 values found for many crowncomponents and species indicate a weak relation­ship to tree size (expressed by Dbh, H and V);similar results have been reported in other stud­ies, for example, by Alemdag (J 982). The coeffi­cient of determination is probably affected byspecies characteristics, stand and site conditions,and by characteristics of the sample for eachspecies.

In some cases, low R2 values renect the arbitrari­ness of branch size class definitions. For exam­ple, branch class 1 was often absent from sampletrees of all species and branch class 3 was almostalways absent in ponderosa pine.

Compared to stemwood and bark, crown compo­nents are greatly affected by relatively short-termchanges in stand and site conditions. The inclu­sion of independent variables renecling standdensity and age might improve the goodness offit and precision of estimates for crown compo­nents (Alemdag and Stiell 1982; Madgwick andKreh 1980).

Accuracy

Extensive plottings of the results and detailedanalysis did not indicate any significant bias orlack offit for most species.

17

Degeneracy

In general, both simple and multiple linear re­gression models give reasonable predictionsthroughout the range of the sample. Predictionsfrom the multiple linear equations for compo­nents of some very small trees near the lowerlimits of the sample can be zero or slightly nega­tive depending on the dimensions of a particulartree, the characteristics of the sample, and thecharacteristics of the equations. The simplelinear equations behave similarly for somecomponents (commonly branch class I) forseveral species.

Extrapolation

Predictions for large trees well beyond the rangeof tree size for a sample are obviously inaccuratefor multiple linear equations for some compo­nents of all species and for total biomass of sever­al species. This results from negative coefficientsfor some variables causing biomass estimates toreach a maximum at some point beyond the sam­ple range and then decrease. An extreme exam­ple of this is the multiple linear equation for Sitkaspruce; a tree with a Dbh of 100 cm and a heightof 45 m has a negative biomass predicted. Thisproblem does not occur with the simple linearequations.

Even when obviously unrealistic predictions donot occur, extrapolation beyond the range of asample is not justified by regression theory. Suchpredictions may be reasonable approximations ofstem and total biomass but they should be regard­ed with caution. Statistics for the equations, suchas R2 or SEE, are not appl icable to suchextrapolations.

The sampling conducted in this study was aimedat a range of tree sizes which would be found insecond growth stands. Sampling was, of neces­sity, further constrained by budgetary and accesslimitations. However, with the possible exceptionof Sitka spruce and yellow cedar, the objectivesof the project have been achieved.

Time-Related Variability

Sampling was conducted during three consecu­tive field seasons over periods of about four to

Page 19: 1+ Government of Canada Gouvernement du Canada Canadian ... · Resume Des equalions de masse onl 10110 elablies pour I 155 arbres, de 22 essences comrnerciales, repartis dans loute

six months so that seasonal nuctuations in treewater content and in dry biomass of crown com­ponents are largely represented in the error term(residual mean square) for the equations. How­ever, given the potentially large degree of varia­bility in water content (Kramer and Kozlowski1979; Hinckley el al. 1978; Waring and Running1978), predictions of fresh biomass may notalways be as reliable as indicated by the statisticspresented in this report. Fresh mass estimatesare further complicated because of the definitionof crown components for fresh mass; for exam­ple, reproductive structures such as strobili andcones are included with their associated branchsize class (usually class 3 which also includesfoliage).

Some of the variability in crown components,particularly foliage, is probably attributable tovariable rates of shoot growth and leaf expan­sion. Such variability may be especially importantwith respect to the relatively weak relationships

18

between tree size and biomass of some crowncomponents for species such as western larch,black cottonwood and trembling aspen which ex­hibit rapid expansion of short shoots followed bya gradual expansion of long shoots. A furthercomplication is that this growth habit changeswith tree age; shoot growth in mature trees ismainly by short shoots (Kramer and Kowzlowski1979).

With the exceptions of Coastal Douglas-fir, Sitkaspruce, black cOllonwood, red alder and shorepine, some old growth trees had to be sampled torepresent larger tree sizes. In older trees there isgenerally marc biomass in the bole and propor­tionally less in the crown (Kramer and Kowz­lowski 1979; Ovington and Madgwick 1959;Whittaker and Wood well 1967). The inclusion ofa few relatively old, large trees in a sample mayfurther contribute to the non-linearity of treesize and crown componem relationships.

II. Stem datal

After each sample tree was selected, felledand delimbecl, sample sections were CUL

from the stem at intervals of 2.0 m, startingat the base. The fresh weight of each stemsection was obtained as below:

2. A sample disc was cut from the smallend or the section. In extremely largepieces, a wedge was taken from this.Green weighl or this disc or segmentwas taken following removal of bark.The weight or bark was taken. Vol­ume of the disc or segment, and barkwas determined as per T A1'1'1 stan­dard TI8m-53. The green weightlvolume ratio was applied to thewhole section (with bark and withoutbark) and recorded as rollows:

C. Gel/eral

Fresh weights of wood and bark for eachdisc or segment were determined at afield lab wilhin 24 hrs of cUlling. Eachdisc was identified by tree number anddisc number and, at ihe end of eachweek, all discs were brought to the mainlab for drying and subsequent weighing.All green weighl dala for stem seclionsand discs was recorded as in (V).

III. Crown Data

Softwoods

The proportions of foliage, wood and barkin a softwood branch vary with the speciesand with the size and relative position of thebranch, as well as site and sland conditions.This variation is a source of potential bias inthe estimation of crown dry weights, inview of: I) the need for some kind of su b­sampling system, 2) the low precision asso­ciated with small sample sizes, and 3) thepractical difficulties involved in construct­ing efficient, unbiased sampling frames forcrown weight estimation. The crown sam­pling methods used in lhis slUdy alLemptedto reduce bias by taking branch size in toaccounl.

All live branches were sorted into threegroups: I) lhose with basal diameler (d)greater than 2.5 cm (measured 3 cm fromthe base of lhe branch), 2) those with basaldiameter 0.5-2.5 cm, 3) those with basaldiameler less than 0.5 cm. The tOlal greenweight of each of group was taken andrecorded as indicated below. The IOtalweight of dead branches (all sizes) was alsolaken and recorded.

In addition, six sample branches were ran­domly selected from each lree 10 providedata for estimation of dry crown componentweighls. These branches were flagged priorto delimbing. Two branches were selectedfrom each of three size classes referred toearlier. The fresh weight of each of thesample branches were obtained in the fieldand lhe sample branches were bagged,

46

labelled and brought in 10 the main lab fordrying.

Hardwoods

Hardwood crowns were cut into sectionsless than 2 m long and then sOrled inlO thefollowing size classes according to lhe mid­diameter of the section: < 2 cm (includingall foliage), 2-6cm, 6-IOcl11 and> 10 cm.

The total weight of malerial in each oflhesesize classes was obtained in the field labora­lOry and recorded as in (VI).

Two branches were randomly selected fromeach size class for estimation of the propor­tions of foliage and moisture. These sampleswere weighed in lhe field and broughl backto the main lab for drying. For each sizeclass only the total weighl of the sample wasrecorded.

IV. Lab Methods

All disc and branch samples were transport­ed to the main Jab and dried in ovens at105°C for alleasl 24 hrs. Some of the largerdiscs required up 10 45 hrs depending onthe size of the disc and the type of oven(convection vs. fan-driven lypes).

Dry weighls of stem disc samples wererecorded. SOflwood foliage was separatedfrom twigs afler drying, either by hand orwith winnowing machine fitted with screensof appropbate size, and lhen weighed sepa­rately. Dry soflwood branch and foliageweighl data were recorded.

Foliage of hardwood branch samples wasseparaled by hand afler drying and lhenweighed. The IOlal dry weight of foliage andbranch was recorded.

V. Recording Stem Weight Data:

Each line (card) corresponds 10 one disc orsection.

1) TREE NO: repeat for each disc/section2) CARD TYPE: 2

3) D/S No.: disc/section no.4) SECTION WEIGHT: total fresh

weight of section (kg) to nearest .1 kg.The space to the left was used for record­ing weights of pieces of section, and forany conversions, e.g.

weights of disc wood and bark (gm) tonearest .1 gm. Discs were taken at 2 111

intervals, starting at ground level. Eachdisc was labelled by tree no. and disc.no. e.g.
