JAPANESE RED PINE ON THE GAMOVA PENINSULA -DIMENSIONAL AND QUALITATIVE CHARACTERISTICS
Todate, there is no information in the literature about the dimensional and qualitative characteristics of the stem wood of the Japanese red pine. The lack of dimensional characteristics introduces certain difficulties in the resource assessment of forests of this valuable tree species, which is listed in the Red Book of Primorsky Krai. The main attention in the research process was paid to remote (contactless) methods of assessing stem wood using GIS technologies. The article gives a brief dimensional and qualitative characteristic of the stem wood of the Japanese red pine, growing separately in the south of the Primorsky Territory. This characteristic will further contribute to the development of full-fledged volumetric tables that can be recommended for use in works to inventory of forests.
