Abstract

A new measure of the forest resource has been added to the fourth forest inventory of Vermont. The inventory, which was conducted in 1982-83, included estimates of aboveground tree biomass on timberland. There are approximately 413 million green tons of wood and bark in the aboveground portion of all trees, which equates to an average of 93 green tons per acre statewide. Approximately 54 percent or 212 million green tons is in growing stock and nearly 49 percent or 202 million green tons is nongrowing stock (growing-stock tops, saplings, cull trees, stumps and salvable dead trees).
