Abstract

Aspen growing stock inventories for nine Lake States forest survey units were updated to the common base year of 1968. Cut and inventory were projected to the year 2000 under three sets of assumptions. Potential shortages were found in northeastern Wisconsin and Michigan if historical trends continue.
