Abstract

Maine has mixed-age forests dominated by softwood species. Most of the trees are healthy, with full crowns (low transparency, high density), little dieback and little damage. Red maple had higher amounts of dieback but seemed to maintain crown fullness. Eastern white pine and northern white cedar had lower densities as well as higher rates of damage.
