Summary:
In the study the level and variation of stem volume were determined in oaks aged from 10 to 140 years growing on two forest site types typical of oak, i.e. fresh mixed broadleaved forest and fresh broadleaved forest. Moreover, a dependence of stem volume of oaks on breast height diameter, height, breast height cross-section area and slenderness was investigated for the analyzed years of life of those trees. Volume was described by linear and multiple regression equations.
