Abstract

Centroid Sampling was terted on 20 logs of Pinus brutia (Pinus brutia Ten.) and 17 logs of Cedar (Cedrus libani A.Rich) all of which were measured in detail. The volume of each log was estimated using Huber's, Smalian's, Newton- Riecke's, Hossfeld's formulas and Centroid Sampling. These estimates were compared with “true” volume of each log which was determined by aggregating the volumes of measured short (10 cm) using Smalian's formula. According to the mean error of the Centroid estimates of the log volumes was not significant for Pinus brutia (Pinus brutia Ten.) and Cedar (Cedrus libani A.Rich) was less than those derived form Huber's, Smalian's, Newton-Riecke's, Hossfeld's formulas. Keywords: Centroid sampling, log volume, Taurus Cedar, Red Pine.
