Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a detailed field study of point-sample cruising, a selective timber surveying method deployed in the US. The study was a joint effort between two entities; the Intermountain Forest and Range Experiment Station and Region 1 of the US Forest Service. Point-sample cruising is established as a reliable timber inventory technique, with the correct application and accurate data compilation. The author presents an analysis of a test of point-sampling compared with plot sampling in southeast Texas, which underscores that this technique, used correctly and with results compiled properly, can be used effectively for reliable timber surveys. A variable plot method of sampling forest stands is described, demonstrating how it can yield more stand information for a given cost than plot cruises. Furthermore, this book examines different methods for applying point-sampling to other stand conditions. It offers a study of techniques for applying point-sampling to other stand conditions. The research presented can be used to establish guidelines for point-sampling in the northern Rocky Mountains.
