Broader concept

Scope note

  • This principle has been applied to various forest sampling problems but most notably to estimating basal area per unit area by angle counting, where inclusion of a tree in the count depends on the basal area of the tree and its proximity to the sampling point, ie small trees are not included if they are some distance from the sampling point, while larger trees will be included at even greater distances.Faculty of Science, http://sres.anu.edu.au/associated/ mensuration/BrackandWood1998/S_BA.HTM
