Forest statistics for the piedmont of South Carolina, 1993. Forest Service resource bulletin

Technical Report · Thu Jul 01 00:00:00 EDT 1993

OSTI ID:5692167

Brown, M J

The report summarizes results from a 1993 inventory of the forest resources of the Piedmont of South Carolina. Current estimates of forest area, associated characteristics, and timber volumes are highlighted and compared with the 1986 and earlier inventory findings. Average annual rates of growth, removals, and mortality since the previous inventory are reported. Adjustments have been made to inventory volumes reported in prior surveys for valid comparisons under current compilation methods. The forest resources in the region did not escape the impact of Hurricane Hugo in 1989. Damage was limited, however, to the four easternmost counties of the survey unit. Notable increases in weather-related damage and mortality were measured in these counties, and are reported in the totals for the region.
