Abstract
During a recent soil-site study of sweetgum in southern New Jersey, measurements of volume were also made on forty-six 0.1-acre plots. These plots were in pure, well-stocked, even-aged stands ranging in age from 30 to 65 years. Basal area ranged from 117 to 245 square feet per acre, with a mean of 180. Site index varied from 60 to 95 feet at 50 years. The trees were of seedling origin, with a maximum age range of about 8 years within a plot.
