Tall Coconut Palm
  • The tall coconut palm is the more common of the two types of coconut trees when it comes to the commercial use of the tree. These palm trees have a swollen trunk at the base that rises, usually in a curve. It has smooth bark that is light gray in color. All of the trees' leaves and the coconuts grow at the very top of the tree. The leaves are up to 18 feet in length and 4-feet wide. The nuts grow in bunches and turn from yellow or green to dark brown at maturity. The nuts contain white "meat" and a liquid known as coconut milk. The tall variety of the coconut tree can reach heights of up to 100 feet.

How do you find the height of a cocunut tree using clino meter?

A clinometer can be used to measure the angle of elevation on the top of the coconut tree. You then measure the distance, D, from your position to the point underneath the top of the coconut tree. Coconut trees are often not straight so this point may not correspond to its base. Then the height of the top of the tree from your eye level, H is given by the formula: H = D*tan(x) so that the tree's full height is H + h where h is the height of your eyes above the ground level.
