Özet
Crown structure and fuel loading are important fuel characteristics affecting crown fire occurrence and behavior. This paper reports on the crown fuel characteristics and regression models to determine crown fuel load of young Calabrian pine (Pinus brutia Ten.) trees. Crown bulk density (CBD), crown base height (CBH) and basal area (BA) were 0.212 kg m-3, 4.5 m and 24.18 m2 ha-1, respectively. Average crown fuel load (CFL) was 1.51 kg m-2. The proportion of needle and available fuel (needle+fine branches) were 19.1 and 48.2 percent, respectively. Also, regression equations were developed for predicting needle, branch and total biomass of Calabrian pine trees. Equations were based on the data from 35 destructively sampled Calabrian pine trees. The relationships between needle and branch biomass and tree properties were determined by linear regression, considering tree properties as the …
