Comparing different k-NN sampling methods for density estimation of wild pistachio (Pistaciaatlantica Desf.) with clustered spatial pattern in a Zagros open stand

Density (i.e. number of trees per unit area) is one of the important structural attributes of forest stands which is appropriate to understand forest dynamics. The k-Nearest Neighbour (k-NN) method is a distance sampling method which is commonly used to estimate quantitative attributes in forest inv...
