Abstract
A Java based software package provides a user with Internet access the ability to store, summarize, and translate field collected data describing forest stands and to run simulations to assess possible future scenarios that include stand management and the effects of gypsy moth defoliation. The model interface is constructed as a Java applet that will run within a Java-compliant Internet worldwide-web browser, allowing a user from any computer that has Internet and web access to use these tools. The model user also has the ability to access data from a large collection of example stands that are available from a server-side database.
