Maximum and Largest Crown Width Equations for 15 Tree Species in Maine
Problem Addressed: Crown width is an important tree attribute, but challenging and expensive to measure.
Goal(s)/Objective(s): Develop equations to predict maximum and largest crown width as a function of DBH
Key Findings: Large differences between species crown widths and a strong relationship with DBH
Recommendation: Crown width equations are useful tool and can be used to derive a variety of forest attributes like crown closure.

This is the kind of applied paper that will no longer be available in a regional SAF journal. Glad it is available on NEFIS!
