Özet
In forestry applications, tree stems of Crimean pine (Pinus nigra JF Arnold subsp. pallasiana (Lamb.) Holmboe) are produced and evaluated without bark, and volumes of tree stems are calculated as under-bark for commercial trades in Turkey. In harvesting process of tree stem, bark is abandoned to forest land. Even if bark is not evaluated as a product, it plays very important role to protect tree stem from insects and fire, and it is essential to contribute to soil as a humus material. Beside, tree bark is one of the potential non-wood products in forestry and can be used in many areas such as landscape, medicine, etc. Because of these aspects, correct estimations of tree bark thickness and bark volume have great importance. In this study, a total of 227 sample trees were selected and felled from Crimean pine stands representing available range of sites, densities and ages in the studied region. Regression equations using diameter at breast height (dbh) as independent variable to estimate bark thickness (b) and bark volume (Vb) were fitted and evaluated. The equations fitted accounted for about the 79% and 95% of the total variance in dbh-b and dbh-Vb relationships, respectively. The selected equations were also investigated in respect to residual distributions and other realistic growth patterns, and found to be appropriate.
