Forest Resources of the United States, 2012: a technical document supporting the Forest Service 2010 update of the RPA Assessment

Forest resource statistics from the 2010 Resources Planning Act (RPA) Assessment were updated to provide current information on the Nation's forests as a baseline for the 2015 national assessment. Resource tables present estimates of forest area, volume, mortality, growth, removals, and timber products output in various ways, such as by ownership, region, or State. Current resource data and trends are analyzed and placed within the context of changes since 1953. Additional analyses look at the resource from an ecological, health, and productivity perspective. An interactive RPA Data Wiz DVD is also included to provide user access to the resource data. *** 2012 Resource Planning Act (RPA) Forest Resources Assessment Tools *** Read Me First Download (zip 2.3 GB)
