The standard intro text for forestry is probably Avery and Burkhart's Forest Measurements (McGraw-Hill)--it's the one I use in my Natural Resources Inventory class but you might find "Sampling Techniques for Forest Resource Inventory" by Shiver and Borders useful as well.

Batcher Sent: Wednesday, April 06, 2011 7:46 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [ECOLOG-L] Forest methods reference I am looking for a good reference on forestry methods that describes field methods as well as methods to analyze data. I have used the following: Mueller Dombois - Aims and Methods of Vegetation Ecology Krebs - Ecological Methodology Husch, Beers and Kershaw - Forest Mensuration None of these cover all the methods I am interested in. Any recommendations would be much appreciated. Thanks. Michael S. Batcher, MS, AICP Ecologist and Environmental Planner 1907 Buskirk-West Hoosick Rd.
