Description: Provides functions to compute tree crown volume and
        projected area using geometric solid approximations (ellipsoid,
        cone, cylinder, paraboloid, and fan shapes), and to calculate
        morphometric indices commonly used in forest inventory and
        silviculture, including crown ratio, crown form factor,
        slenderness, salience index, and scope index. Methods are based
        on peer-reviewed literature in forest science.
