Abstract

A new measure of the forest resource has been added to the fourth forest inventory of New Hampshire. The inventory, which was conducted in 1982-83, included estimates of aboveground tree biomass on timberland. There are approximately 502 million green tons of wood and bark in the aboveground portion of all trees, or 104 green tons per acre. Fifty-five percent or 275 million green tons is in growing stock and 45 percent or 227 million green tons is non-growing stock (growing-stock tops, saplings, cull trees, stumps and salvable dead trees).
