Application of Randomized Branch Sampling to Conifer Trees: Estimating Crown Biomass
Randomized branch sampling (RBS) is a sampling scheme which can be implemented to estimate many different attributes of an object displaying a branched or forked form. The aboveground structure of trees (stem and branches) lends itself naturally to this type of sampling design. RBS utilizes the …
