I’m looking for some advice on upgrading the dendromet Hi all, I’m looking for some advice on upgrading the dendrometer bands I use for research. I’ve worked in the tropics for years now and have installed hundreds of traditional dendrometer bands (http://www.nwrc.usgs.gov/topics/Dendrometer/) made by hand with springs and stainless steel banding. I’m looking to reinstall some of these dendrometer bands with pre-made dendrometer bands that can measure small changes in growth.
I would greatly appreciate recommendations from those who have experience measuring tree growth.What types of dendrometer bands did you use? How did they hold up and work? Please respond off-list.I’m happy to compile my responses and report back to all who are interested. Thank you in advance for your advice.
