Other claims from this paper (4)
- Method / resource The increment formula gave a very good match to poplar growth and increment table data.
- Method / resource The indirectly determined growth formula had inadmissible systematic errors when early growth data were absent.
- Method / resource The graphic method produced a good match between calculated and given height and diameter growth and increment data.
- Method / resource The graphic method had near-zero average growth-formula errors for height and diameter, compared with 4.6 m and 7.9 cm with Thomasius.
