Yep, they both mean the same thing in practice.

Circumference is a mathematical or scientific term used by people who believe that more letters means more clever.

Girth is a plantsman's or forester's term originally, used by people who think that getting on with the job is more important. So I guess it's natural it became the preferred term for assessing wood.

Are you talking about anatomy. Well in general Girth is shear total size, or amount of actual matter. Circumference is the disance around the outer edge, usually applied to a circle or sphere.
