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 northeastern forests.Federal Forest Inventory and Analysis Data for the NortheastNevinsMatthiasforest healthforest inventorynortheastern forestsforest coverseedlingForestland area by age class for the Northeast1983-01-01Data extracted from FIA EVALIDator: forestland area by stand age (20 year age classes). Stand age diversity represents the presence of a large range of age classes in the forest. The age of the trees in a forest provides us a sense of the amount of time since a stand-replacing disturbance event has occurred, such as a hurricane or a timber harvest. Across our forests, we want a diversity of stand ages, with some stands being young and new and others being old and in place for a long time. This provides a diversity of habitat for a range of wildlife, and resilience to change.
