Purpose

1) Characterize forest carbon stores and flux, by pool, for the west coast states from FIA plot data and remote sensing; 2) Generate predictions of how carbon stores and flux would change with different kinds of management and disturbance; and 3) Evaluate the accuracy of models used to predict forest carbon and characterize the true level of imprecision inherent in such estimates.
