Influence of Soil and Topography on Willow Oak Sites

Informally Refereed

Abstract

Southern foresters and forest landowners are often faced with the necessity of estimating the productive capacity of their hardwood sites. The Southern Forest Experiment Station is developing techniques for using soil and topographic characteristics to predict site index (average height of dominants at age 50 years ) for many commercially important southern hardwood species .
