Forestry inventory statistics for a six-county area in Southeastern Tennessee. Forestry Bulletin No. 185

Technical Report · Fri Mar 01 04:00:00 EST 1985

OSTI ID:5347834

The six counties (Bradley, Hamilton, McMinn, Meigs, Monroe Polk) cover about 1.7 million acres. Continuous forest inventory (CFI) plots were tested in 1960 for measuring future trends in timber supply on 1 million acres of Tennessee Valley forests that help support some of the Valley's largest wood-using industries. Development of more precise volume estimation techniques and changes in utilization standards over the past two decades have been incorporated into the TVA's CFI system since the 1960 survey. This report provides information on the timber supply and changes in growth and removals over the past 24 years. (DLC)
