Hi ,
I have few question related to tree measurements.
How can we calculate a volume of a single and forest stand?
what is meant by form factor ? how can we calculate form factor and its importance?
biomass expansion factor and its formula ?
allometric equation?
Thanks

Simply study basic trigonometry and use of different measurement tools. Study a basic forest mensuration book.
Form of a tree is a taper from base to top and Form factor is the division of actual volume of main stem of a tree divided by its cylindrical volume at diameter at breast height.

See this manual too..

I agree with Prof . Kulwant Rai Sharma's suggestions . To measure volume and form factor of tree , please consult any book on forest mensuration . Very simple computations !
