Description:Excerpt from Comprehensive Tree Volume Equations for Major Species of New Mexico and Arizona, Vol. 1: Results and Methodology In addition to these, Meyer (1938) published gross volume tables for unforked ponderosa pine derived from data collected in several western States, including the Southwest. Volumes were given in three units of measure-tota1 stem cubic foot, Inter national -inch, and Scribner board foot. More recently, the logarithmic method has been used to develop equations for unforked, gross Scribner board foot volume to an 8-inch top in white fir (peterson 1958) and in Englemann spruce (peterson and for unforked, gross cubic foot volume to both a 4 and an 8-inch top in immature and mature ponderosa pine (gaines and Peterson Minor (1961) used weighted, least squares regression to develop an equation for unforked, gross cubic foot volume to a 4-inch top in ponderosa pine, whereas Myers (1963) used ordinary, least squares regression with segmented data to develop unforked, gross volume equations for (a) total stem cubic foot volume, (b) merchantable cubic foot volume to a 4-inch and variable top limit, and (c) International -inch and Scribner board foot volumes to a variable top limit. (myers used the term variable top limitto indicate that the merchantable top diameter was a fixed function of a tree's diameter breast height and not to indicate that the top diameter was an independent variable in the volume equation. The latter type of equation can be converted to the former by defining the functional relationship between d.b.h. And top diameter.) The purpose of this study was to develop gross and net tree volume equations for forked and unforked trees of the major tree species found in Arizona and New Mexico. Species-national Forest (sp-nf) Specific equations were developed for the following units of measure-total stem cubic foot volume, merchantable cubic foot volume for any top diameter between 3 and 8 inches, and International l/4 - inch and Scribner board foot volumes to a -inch top. The resulting equations and methodology used to derive these equations are described in this paper. Volume tables for use in the field appear in a companion piece, Comprehensive tree volume equations for major species of New Mexico and Arizona: II. Tables for unforked trees.
