Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6984757

Tabulated results were derived from data obtained during the 1993 forest inventory of northeast Oklahoma counties. The northeastern region of Oklahoma has experienced a 4 percent increase in forest land since 1986. The region is now 43 percent forested, with over 90 percent of the 1,455,900 forested acres classified as timberland. Woodland acreage has decreased slightly to 114,700 acres. The oak-hickory forest type continues to dominate northeast Oklahoma, covering 87 percent of the timberland. The number of live merchantable-size trees has increased by 11 percent. Both softwoods and hardwoods show appreciable increases of 29 and 10 percent, respectively. However, softwoods comprise only 5 percent of all live merchantable-size trees.
