Abstract

Following the history of forest inventory, the outline of recent trends and characteristics is reported. As an example, for Shikoku regional forest planning units, local forest growth models are derived and their applicability for precise prediction over the long term horizon is discussed by using growth data from permanent and temporary plots. For the use in regional forest planning, conjunction with various sampling and yield plots data is recommended with these local models as a basic model. It would be applied to multi-regional planning, and fill information gaps.
