Description

ANNOTATION: Seven areas in Georgia were harvested with a conventional system and three with a whole tree system. Pre- and post-harvest sampling of all standing woody biomass provided base data for estimating standing and downed residuals by initial stand conditions and harvest system. Relationships were developed to permit estimation of recoverable stand components.
