Abstract :
In this paper, we attempted to address the following issues: 1, The estimation of the total mass of leaves on a given tree. 2, The relationship between tree leaf mass and tree height as well as crown breadth area. Determining factors of tree growing mainly include tree height, crown length and diameter at breast height(DBH). We analyzed the relationship between all these factors and tree leaf area. Finally, we sought to clarify how tree height and leaf area correlates with leaf mass by establishing tree height inhibiting model, a regression model on tree height and leaf area. After acquiring the leaf mass per unit area, we based on the linear relationship between tree height and leaf area to estimate the total tree leaf mass on a given tree.
