Abstract
This report highlights the principal findings of the fifth inventory of Florida’s forests. Fieldwork began in September 1978 and was completed in May 1980. Four previous surveys, completed in 1936, 1949, 1959, and 1970, provide statistics for measuring changes and trends over the past 44 years. The primary emphasis in this report is on the changes and trends since 1970. Previously reported figures have been adjusted to provide the best estimate of change.
