摘要：

Measured twig basal diameters, diameters at point of browsing, and diameters of unbrowsed twig tips on 6 shrub species to estimate browse use without regression equations or relying upon before and after browsing measurements. Stimulated browsing of twigs was predicted accurately for paper birch Betula papyrifera, red-osier dogwood Cornus stolonifera, prickly rose Rosa acicularis and Scouler's willow Salix scouleriana. The technique adequately predicted leaf use only for Douglas maple Acer glabrum. Minimum sample sizes to estimate total browsing of twigs appear feasible, if maximum error is expressed as percentage points around average use, rather than as percentage of average use. -Authors
