Comparison of tree volume equations for small-leaved lime (Tilia cordata Mill.) in the Czech Republic
Original language description
Although the small-leaved lime (Tilia cordata Mill.) is a native tree in the Czech Republic, there are no volume tables, and its volume has so far been estimated according to beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) tables. In order to increase accuracy of timber volume calculations, the most appropriate volume equations should be selected to develop volume tables specifically for lime. Based on literature sources eight volume equations were selected, and their accuracy was tested by statistical evaluation of assessed parameters and differences between calculated and sampled lime tree volume. Eighty-one sample trees were randomly selected for this study. The most suitable equation was Borset's equation according to the evaluation of equation parameters and comparison of the results obtained from the volume formula and from sample trees (difference of mean value 0.000009 m(3)). Finally, the calculated lime volumes were compared with the beech tables. The lime volumes are higher than beech volumes acc
