Abstract

Preliminary tables for estimating dry weights of whole trees and of crown components are presented for California blackuoak and tanoak; total tree weight only for Pacific madrone. Crown component weights were generated from data of two earlier studies, one from the Appalachians and one from the Pacific Northwest.
