An instrument used to measure tree trunk diameter, growth rate, and wood volume.
From Greek 'dendron' (tree) + 'metron' (measure). This scientific tool was developed in the 19th century for forestry and timber management.
Modern dendrometers use laser technology and are so precise they can track how trees respond to climate changes year by year—essentially giving trees a health report card!
