Tree basal area. Tree Basal Area (TBA) is the cross-sectional area (over the bark) at breast height (1.3 metres above the ground) measured in metres squared (m2). TBA can be used to estimate tree volumes and stand competition.ree Basal Area (TBA) is the cross-sectional area (over the bark) at breast height (1.3 metres above the ground) measured in metres squared (m2).
This tree diagram shows the relationships between several groups of organisms. The root of the current tree connects the organisms featured in this tree to their containing group and the rest of the Tree of Life. The basal branching point in the tree represents the ancestor of the other groups in the tree. This ancestor diversified over time into several descendent subgroups, which are represented as internal nodes and terminal taxa to the right.
