Abstract

The objective of this work was to develop mathematic equations to estimate chip density. The data came from 560 trees from Eucalyptus clonal unthinned stands owned by the International Paper of Brazil Co. It was adjusted a model using dendrometric variables easily obtained (height, site, age, and diameter) and another model using the disk density and age. The statistic of the adjustment, including the density of disk, were well above when it was considered only the dendrometric variables. It was observed statistic difference in density of chips among the four genetic materials, highlighting the highest values in less productive management unit.
