Abstract

Estimates of timber resources for south-central Alaska are presented. Data collection began in 2000 and was completed in 2003. All forest lands over all ownerships were considered for sampling. The inventory unit was, roughly, the region between Icy Bay to the east and Kodiak Island to the west. Forest lands within national forest wilderness study areas and recommended wilderness areas were not sampled on the ground. Tables present supply estimates of area, timber volume, growth, mortality, and harvest.
