Abstract

Introduction: When contemplating a stand of timber a forest ecologist knows from experience that during its life history the stand has been shaped and influenced by a bewildering array of interacting phenomena. A few of these interacting forces might include climatic fluctuations, soil development, fire, windstorms, land use, and insect and disease epidemics (Spurr, 1964).
