Abstract An average stand diameter yield table and a diameter growth
per decade table are presented for unmanaged stands of quaking
aspen in southwest Colorado. The yield table presents yields per
tree for the following utilization standards: 1. total cubic-foot
volume minus the stump, 2. cubic-foot volume to a 4-inch top, a
6-inch top, and an 8-inch top, 3. Scribner board-foot volume to a
6-inch top and an 8-inch top, and 4. International l/4-inch kerf
board-foot volume to a 6-inch top and an 8-inch top. Also, tables
are presented for the following: 1. empirical number of trees per
acre, 2. empirical average total stand height, 3. ten-year-survival
percentages, 4. empirical basal area per acre, and 5.
empirical yields per acre. The diameter growth per decade table
is based on average stand diameter and present stand age at DBH. The tables were developed by using stepwise multiple regression
techniques. The procedures for predicting future yields per acre
are discussed.
