Abstract

Number-of-trees data compiled by the USDA Forest Service from three periodic statewide inventories of Maine's forest resources are used to analyze the composition of the state's timberland in terms of species, tree class, and size. Conditions are compared and contrasted for periods from 1959 to 1971 to 1982 across different regions and counties of the state. Twenty-three statistical tables containing 1982 estimates of number of trees, trees per acre, and average diameter are presented.
