Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Approximate Forest Area and Timber Volume by County in the Carolinas and Virginia
This report, giving the approximate forest area and timber volume in each county of the Carolinas and Virginia, is based upon field surveys made as a part of the inventory phase of the Forest Survey at the Appa lachian Forest Emperiment Station. In the East the nation wide Forest Survey did not plan to release information for areas smaller than survey units (four to ten million acres), but the demand for forest statistics by counties has shown a marked increase as planning for post - war develop ment becomes more intense with the gradual approach of victory. To meet this demand the original Forest Survey statistics for survey units with in states have been recomputed to provide estimates of forest area and timber volumes by counties, and are presented in this report as a series of three statistical tables for each state. The figures are as of the date of the original survey, and no attempt has been made to correct them.for recent changes in forest area or annual timber growth and drain. In South Carolina the data are for 1936, in North Carolina for 1938, and in Virginia for 1940. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
