The network of randomly distributed inventory plots are designed to capture broad temporal changes in the condition of the nation’s forest resource. Spatial coverages of species distribution, extent of forest cover and biomass compliment the yearly data summaries to capture an unbiased estimated of the state of Vermont's forests.Federal Forest Inventory and Analysis Data for VermontMorinRandallforest dynamicsforest ecologyspatial variabilitytemporal propertiesPlot Condition Groups Defined By Forest Inventory and Analysis Program1983-01-01Extract of Vermont FIA data ("COND" file). A condition is a discrete combination of landscape attributes that define the condition (a condition will have the same land class, reserved status, owner group, forest type, stand-size class, regeneration status, and stand density). Conditions are assigned to plotsFIA reports on the status and trends in forest area and location; in the species, size, and health of trees; in total tree growth and mortality.Z0311_0302_26D8VHVMC.311.302mySQLUS Forest Service.
