G’day Science forums Could anyone give me some advice on structuring a hypothesis? I’ve designed an algorithm to extract a 3D representation of the branching structure of each tree in a plot of trees from remotely sensed data. The idea I’m testing is that there is a correlation between a measure of volume based on this derived structure for each tree (imaginatively called ‘derived tree volume’) and the volume measured by destructive field sampling (actual tree volume). So far I’ve got “It is the contention of this study that these regression analyses yield a relationship between the variables derived from this representative framework and the standing timber volume of scanned trees of which a proportion is sequestered carbon” but this doesn’t sound right to me. Perhaps this is simple but I can’t for the life of me work out how to write this out properly as a hypothesis. Appreciate any help you could provide Cheers Matt
