Abstract

Forests in the southeastern United States managed extensively (minimal silvicultural treatments) generally have low productivity rates (Fox and others 2007). Conversely, intensively managed stands have significantly increased productivity in this region, from 2 m3 ha-1 year -1 to a range of 6 to 10 m3 ha-1 year -1 (Fox and others 2007).
