Forest Biometrics/Modeling

The specialization of Forest Biometrics/Modeling develops the statistical, mathematical and associated computer software tools needed to collect and/or project the basic data needed to make intelligent management decisions. These tools include the application of sampling techniques to estimate static data from inventories of stands or forests, and the application of regression techniques to estimate dynamic data from models of the tree or stand.
