The diameters (cm) were registered daily by an automated recording
dendrometer (DBL60 Stand-Alone Logging
Dendrometer, Armidale, Australia).
Daily weather response of balsam fir (Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.) stem radius increment from
dendrometer ysis in the boreal forests of Quebec (Canada), Trees--Structure and Function 17: 477-484.
Seasonal changes in trunk circumference were monitored in 204 trees from 53 species using home-made steel
dendrometer bands [31].
Carmel, Illinois, at 15 feet (4.6 m) diameter at 10 feet (3 m) above ground, whose height as measured by
dendrometer was "probably the tallest tree east of California," in Ridgway's (1882) words.
Finally, weekly
dendrometer readings from a smaller sample of trees (20, four for each species) were recorded from May 20 through October 14, 1999, and compared to precipitation events and soil moisture availability.
Spring-loaded
dendrometer bands were installed on six M.
Most studies of growth responses to permanent flooding have used
dendrometer bands, tapes or calipers to measure diameter growth (Conner and Day, 1976; Mitsch and Ewel, 1979; Keeland, 1994), but long-term data sets on tree growth are difficult to obtain using these methods.
