Modeling stand volume of rubber (Hevea Brasiliensis) plantations in Malaysia using landsat TM / Mohd Nazip Suratman ... [et al.]

Effective management and appropriate policy for rubber trees (Hevea brasiliensis (Wild, ex Adr. de Juss.) Muell Arg.) require reliable forecasts of resource availability. This study was conducted to develop and validate models for estimating stand volume of rubber plantations in Malaysia. A total of...
