Abstract:

The USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program has prepared a collaborative Forest Inventory and Analysis data summary for the Black Hills National Forest (BHNF) in western South Dakota and northeastern Wyoming. The summary is based on double-intensity sampling (approximately one plot representing each 3,000 acres) from 2017-2018 and accelerated base-plot (approximately one plot representing each 6,000 acres) sampling for 2019. The 2019 data includes measurements of base plots that would typically be remeasured during the period 2020-2023. Included in this package is a summary spreadsheet containing 15 tables with graphs covering the timber resources, volume, growth, mortality, and harvest removals on the forest. Also included is a spreadsheet providing the associated sampling errors for these attributes. A customized version of the FIA EVALIDator data access tool is also provided, that allows additional queries for these Black Hills National Forest data.
