This new version brings new naming conventions that will be useful for sorting the package into "modules" of related functions.
-
silv_tree_*(): tree-level metrics (although some can be also used as stand-level using thentreesargument). -
silv_stand_*(): stand or plot-level metrics -
silv_predict_*(): predictions based on models
The old functions are now deprecated and will be eliminated in a future release.
-
silv_density_sdi(): calculates the Stand Density Index -
silv_predict_height(): estimates height from diameter, using the so-called h-d curves. The argumentequationallows to choose which equations to use. Currently, onlyeq_hd_aitor2025()available. -
silv_stand_dominant_diameter(): calculates dominant diameter using two methods:-
Assman: the mean diameter of the 100 thickest trees per hectare -
Weise: the quadratic mean diameter of the 20% thickest trees per hectare
-
-
eq_biomass_*(): equations to be used inside themodelargument ofsilv_predict_biomass().
-
Fix an error with the validator of variable names in
silviculture::InventoryS7 class. -
biomass_models: some were failing because the "-" sign was parsed as an em dash.
-
Prediction functions (
silv_predict_*()) will now have common arguments, and specific arguments that depend of the model used that are specified as a function (e.g.silv_predict_height(model = eq_hd_aitor2025())). -
silv_volume(): it assumed diameter to be in meters. Now the diameter must be given in centimeters. An informing message was added to the function. -
S7
silviculture::Inventoryclass now stores groups.
-
silv_diametric_class()deprecated in favour ofsilv_tree_dclass() -
silv_basal_area()deprecated in favour ofsilv_tree_basal_area()andsilv_stand_basal_area() -

silv_lorey_height()deprecated in favour ofsilv_stand_lorey_height() -
silv_sqrmean_diameter()deprecated in favour ofsilv_stand_qmean_diameter() -
silv_spacing_index()deprecated in favour ofsilv_density_hart() -
silv_ntrees_ha()deprecated in favour ofsilv_density_ntrees_ha() -
silv_biomass()deprecated in favour ofsilv_predict_biomass()
