The present work aimed to characterize the horizontal structure of an area of primary Amazonian Forest and the spatial distribution of the species Goupia glabra (Aubl.), Qualea spp. and Dipteryx odorata (Aubl.) Willd. through the analysis of the Kernel density, aiming to support the planning of forest management. The study area is located in Santa Carmem, microregion of Sinop, state of Mato Grosso (1,024 ha), w...
Studies that address the appropriate use of forest resources are essential for the management and conservation of forest remnants, such as the Araucaria Forest. Considering the importance to improve the knowledge of the tree species growth in subtropical regions, the present study aimed to assess the intra-annual diameter growth of tree species in Colombo County, Paraná State, Brazil. In November 2009 dendromet...
To know the volume of wood from a forest is extremely important. Volume equations for species from the Araucaria Forest are restricted almost exclusively to plantations of araucaria. Equations for Ocotea porosa (Nees & Mart.) Barroso plantations are inexistent. The present work aims to develop equation for individual tree volume and hypsometric relation from an Ocotea porosa, established in the region of Ri...
To quantify the stock of commercial timber in forests demands efficient methods, making possible to estimate efficiently and accurately the present and future timber volume. The aim of this work was to adjust the mathematical models used to estimate timber volume, allowing the determination of the timber potential of a region with greater accuracy and lower cost. The study was conducted at Lábrea, State of Am...
