Common terms and concepts used in Swedish forestry:

Volume definitions

m3sk

Tree stem volume above the felling cut. Includes bark and top of the tree, but not branches.

m3fub

Volume of log(s) excluding bark.

m3fpb

Volume of log(s) including bark.

m3to

Volume of log(s) as given by a cylinder, with diameter = top diameter of the log under bark.


Mean diameters

Dgv - Basal area weighted mean diameter

Basal area weighted mean diameter (cm):



where
= number of tree objects, and
= diameter at breast height for tree object i, and
= tree expansion factor for the number of trees that tree object i represents.





where
= Sum of basal areas of trees (m2/ha) ()
= diameter at breast height for tree object i, and
= tree expansion factor for the number of trees that tree object i represents per ha.
