"Should damaged trees be clear cut and replanted or allowed to recover naturally? Is the deer herd large enough to survive hunting pressure? Managing forest resources entails numerous decisions. Making these decisions intelligently requires sound information about the resource in question. Ideally, assessments should be based on the entire population involved. However, the costs in time and money often prevent this, and evaluations or sampling - are done on a small portion of the whole." "Forest Sampling Desk Reference explains the uses and limitations of individual sampling designs in forest inventory operations. Before selecting a sampling procedure one needs to know its strengths and weaknesses in relation to its expense. Forest Sampling Desk Reference supplies the background necessary for making these decisions." "Features: details derivations of most of the statistical methods used in forestry; explains the uses and limitations of individual sampling designs in forest inventory operations; covers topics such as accuracy and precision of data, symbology, averages, measures of dispersion, probability, discrete and continuous probability distributions, sampling theory; and furnishes a thorough treatment of systematic and other frequently used forms of sampling in one resource."--Jacket.
