  2. Lycopodium powder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lycopodium_powder

    The powder is also highly hydrophobic; if the surface of a cup of water is coated with lycopodium powder, a finger or other object inserted straight into the cup will come out dusted with the powder but remain completely dry. Because of the very small size of its particles, lycopodium powder can be used to demonstrate Brownian motion. A ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biltmore_stick

    It looks much like an everyday yardstick. With practice a Biltmore stick is considered to be exceptionally accurate, often within half an inch on diameters. Some foresters use the tool regularly, however, many prefer to use more accurate tools such as a diameter tape to measure diameter at breast height (DBH) and a clinometer to measure height ...

  7. Tree measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_measurement

    There are direct measurements. Shorter trees can be measured using a long pole extended vertically to the top of the tree. Larger trees can be climbed and a tape measurement made from the highest point of the climb to the base of the tree. The distance to the top of the tree can be measured from that point, if needed, using a pole.
