Abstract

Recently the selection and transformation systems became more and more important due to the close-to-nature forest management in Hungary. The application of these systems requires a more accurate estimation of the increment by diameter classes. In order to improve the accuracy and the speed of the inventory work the authors elaborated a new volume estimation method based on the data of the Growth Monitoring Network gathered for the past 15 years.

Keywords: selection system, transformation system, increment estimation, volume estimation
