Forestry Exam 2 UPDATED ACTUAL
Exam Questions and CORRECT Answers
Basal area (BA) of a tree is calculated using both tree diameter at breast height (DBH) and tree
height
TRUE
FALSE - CORRECT ANSWER - False
The value used for calculating individual tree basal area is called the Loggers constant.
TRUE
FALSE - CORRECT ANSWER - False
You measure a shagbark hickory and get a diamaeter at breast height of 7 in... what is the basal
area BA of the tree?
0.3 ft2
0.5 ft2
1.1 ft2
1.2 ft2 - CORRECT ANSWER - 0.3 ft2
When using point sampling, each tree in the forest stand has an equal probability of being
selected.
TRUE
FALSE - CORRECT ANSWER - False
, You measure a northern red oak and get a diameter at breast height DBH of 18 inches.. what is
the basal area (BAt) of this tree?
2.7 ft2
3.2 ft2
1.8 ft2
0.5ft2 - CORRECT ANSWER - 1.8 ft2
In the unlikely circumstance that you find a perfectly cylinder log, which of the log volume
formulae will give you an absolutly accurate calculation of volume?
Huber
Smalian
Newton
All of them
None of them - CORRECT ANSWER - All of them
Say you measuer a log with the purpose of estimating cubic foot volume. The log has a length of
32 ft and cross-sectional of B=2.5, B1/2 = 1.2, b- 0.9. What is the cubic volume of the log using
Huber?
36.2 ft3
38.4 ft3
28.1 ft3
54.4 ft3 - CORRECT ANSWER - 38.4 ft3
