Abstract

Presents and compares stand growth and yield information from three single-tree selection cuts, a crop-tree release treatment, an 8-inch diameter limit cut, and an uncut control. Discusses the influence of stand density on basal area growth, cubic volume growth, and board-foot volume growth.

Keywords

basal area growth, cubic volume growth, board foot growth, yield, basal area stocking, stand structure
