An extract of the tree measurement data collected by the Forest Inventory and Analysis program for Vermont ("TREE" file). Data include various tree physiology and quality measurements for a network of permanent plots measured on a rotating basis.Forest Ecosystem Monitoring CooperativeFederal Forest Inventory and Analysis Data for VermontRandallMorinprincipalInvestigatorA summary of the latest USDA Forest Inventory and Analysis data for the state of Vermont. The network of randomly distributed inventory plots are designed to capture broad temporal changes in the condition of the nation’s forest resource. Spatial coverages of species distribution, extent of forest cover and biomass compliment the yearly data summaries to capture an unbiased estimated of the state of Vermont's forests.Tree-level Data Gathered Through the Forest Inventory and Analysis ProgramAn extract of the tree measurement data collected by the Forest Inventory and Analysis program for Vermont ("TREE" file).
