# Peat swamp forest, Dipterocarpaceae group, volume from D and H (model 7)

Stem volume equation for Dipterocarpaceae, Indonesia, from Qirom & Akbar 2020. 42 trees, DBH 6.3–29.2 cm. Listed on Tree Allometrics, a free library of tree allometric equations, each quoted from the source that published it.

## Equation

As printed in Qirom & Akbar 2020 (Best model, Dipterocarpaceae group, p. 10 (Tabel 3 model 7)):

> V = 0,000074(D2H)0,954143 R2 = 98,9 %

Cite: https://treeallometry.org/equations/qirom-2020-dipterocarpaceae-d2h/#equation

In this library's units, ready to compute (stem volume in m³):

```
Stem volume = 0.000074 * (D^2 * H)^0.954143
```

Inputs: D = Diameter at breast height (1.3 m) (cm); H = Total tree height (m).
The source's own form: 0.000074 * (DBH^2 * H)^0.954143, with DBH in cm, H in m; output in m3.

A missing fit statistic is one the source doesn't state, or that we haven't recorded; it is never estimated. Outside the stated DBH range or region, the equation is an extrapolation.

## The facts, in the source's words

**Equation** (Best model, Dipterocarpaceae group, p. 10 (Tabel 3 model 7)):

> V = 0,000074(D2H)0,954143 R2 = 98,9 %

Cite: https://treeallometry.org/equations/qirom-2020-dipterocarpaceae-d2h/#equation

**Trees measured** (Tabel 1, Penyusunan Model):

> Kelompok dipterocarpaceae Diameter 13,0 6,3 29,2 4,5 42

**Our note:** Volume to a 5 cm top diameter by Smalian's formula on 2 m sections (stem volume, no branches). Diameter was taken at 1.3 m or 20 cm above ground (as printed: 'setinggi dada (1,3 m) atau 20 cm di atas permukaan tanah'); the paper does not say which trees used which. Natural-log form as printed, with no correction factor stated. Fit ranges are those of the model-development subset (70% of the trees, Table 1).

## Checks this equation passes

On every build, the library's form and the source's own form (in its units) must both give these values within 1%.

| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| D = 10, H = 12 | 0.0642 | 0.0642 | Computed from the printed form: computed from the published form (coefficients as printed) |
| D = 20, H = 16 | 0.317 | 0.317 | Computed from the printed form: computed from the published form (coefficients as printed) |
| D = 28, H = 20 | 0.745 | 0.745 | Computed from the printed form: computed from the published form (coefficients as printed) |
