Annual Monitoring of US Timber Production: Rationale and Design

Coulston, J. W., Westfall, J. A., Wear, D. N., Edgar, C. B., Prisley, S. P., Treiman, T. B., … Smith, W. B. (2018, June 6). Forest Science.

By: J. Coulston*, J. Westfall *, D. Wear*, C. Edgar*, S. Prisley*, T. Treiman*, R. Abt n, W. Smith*

author keywords: Industrial roundwood; forest sector; sampling; sustainability
topics (OpenAlex): Forest ecology and management; Forest Management and Policy; Remote Sensing and LiDAR Applications
TL;DR: The reasoning for moving to an annual timber products monitoring program is presented and a comparison of sample designs is presented to facilitate an annual program without increased effort, finding that both probability proportional to size and stratified simple random sampling designs were viable options, but the stratifiedsimple random sampling design provided more flexibility.
