Abstract
Brutian pine is one of the important commercial species for forest products industry of Turkey. In this study, diameter (d)-height (h) models for natural Brutian pine stands in Antalya District were developed using the breast height diameter and some stand characteristics as regressors. In this study, a total of 16 models, the data used were obtained from 59 sample plots from natural Brutian pine stands in Antalya District, were tested. The available data for the species were split into two sets: the majority (%85) was used to estimate model parameters, and the remaining data (%15) were reserved to validate the models. The performance of the models was compared and evaluated with six model performance criteria. According to the model performance criteria, the best results were obtained with Pienaar (1991-II), Sloboda et al. (1993-I), and Sharma and Parton (2007) models, respectively. The similar results were obtained using independent dataset.
