Abstract

A system of equations is developed to forecast number of trees per acre, basal area, and cubic foot yields in eight volume categories by l-inch diameter classes for several combinations of site index, age from planting, and either number of trees planted, number of trees surviving, or basal area at a given age.

Keywords

Pinus palustris, volume predictions, unthinned plantation yields, volume yields of longleaf pine
