+ | --Site index curves for loblolly pine at index age 25 years in the coastal plain of Virginia, | ||
+ | North Carolina, and South Carolina. (These curves are based stem analysis of 40 dominant trees | ||
+ | in the middle and lower Coastal Plain.) | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===Test and Comparison of Site Index Curves=== | ||
+ | Seventy-four permanent growth plots in another study were provided independent data for testing our | ||
+ | new site index curves with those of Schumacher and Coile (1960). We chose the Chumacher-Coile curves | ||
+ | for purposes of comparison because they are widely used in estimating growth and yield of loblolly | ||
+ | pin in the Southeastern Coastal Plain. When the growth plots were established in 1949, they ranged in | ||
+ | age from 16 to 50 years and in site index (age 50) from 63 to 119 feet. Measurements of these 74 plots | ||
+ | at 5-year intervals for 20-year period furnished 364 separate estimates of age and height. | ||
