| Research Abstract |
Scaring properties of woody organ surface area of Japanese cypress (Chamaechparis obtusa Endl.) was surveyed from the view point of metabolic ecology. Surface area of woody organ was proportional to the 0.8 -powered biomass, while leaf area was proportional to one-powered leaf weight. Furthermore, leaf area was proportional to woody surface area. These scaling properties were held within crown, but not in tree. The universal model on area and biomass of each organ was derived as mixed power function of total biomass, which supports whole tree respiration measurements.
