Abstract

This science update provides an overview of forest resources in Missouri based on an inventory conducted by the U.S. Forest Service, Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program at the Northern Research Station in cooperation with the Missouri Department of Conservation. Estimates are based on field data, collected using the FIA annualized sample design, for the measurement cycle 2013 (years 2009-2013) with comparisons made to cycle 2008 (years 2004-2008). The 2013 sample data consist of 3,185 field measured plots on forest land, with about 20 percent collected per year. Data used in this publication were accessed from the FIA Database in May 2014.
