Forest Measurements

Applying statistical methods to forestry problems and developing biologically sound mensuration techniques to assist forest managers.

Forest Biometrics: Sampling Methods, Statistical Inference, Experimental Design.
Forest Biometrics is designed for students interested in applying statistical methods to forestry-related problems. The recommended program incorporates many useful statistical tools and provides a sound foundation in statistical theory.

Program Requirements
Qualifying examinations in both Statistical Inference & Theory administered by the Dept. of Statistics.
