UCF Planting Trees to Offset Carbon Emission from Vehicles Essay

In the Carbon Emissions and Storage in Trees word doc.

the first page

estimating carbon in the emissions from my vehicle.

You will be able to find my vehicle’s numbers and how I calculated it.

In second page.

Estimated Wood Volume

For the method section, you need to write what happened in the class which I am going to tell you now. We went on campus to measure three Oak trees for each group, we were given a meter measuring tool and tangent height gauge clinometer. We measured the height of the tree using tangent height gauge clinometer then we measured the width of the tree using the measuring tool. We also calculated the radius by dividing the width with 2 (width/2).

Then, we calculate the Volume using this equation: V = (h * ?) * r2

Then, we calculate the mass of the tree by using this equation: Volume X 1240 kg/m3.

Then, we calculate the MASS OF CARBON IN THE TREE: Mass X 0.375

ALL THESE NUMBERS YOU WILL FIND IT IN THE OTHER DOCUMENT
