Excerpt from Identifying Aboveground Wood Fiber Potentials in New York State
New York forests are made up of more than just the growing stock that is measured during conventional forest inventories. A biomass inventory, completed in 1980, showed that New York commercial forest lands contain nearly million green tons of aboveground tree biomass, or an average of green tons per acre. Conventional growing stock accounted for 57 percent of the total wood fiber supply. The rest was nongrowing stock that includes cull trees, previously noncommercial tree species, small trees, and tree tops. Utilization studies conducted in New York showed that million green tons of wood residues generated by harvesting and processing industrial wood products are not being used, but that such residues could be recovered for certain forest products.
Standing aboveground tree biomass may be more expensive to recover than residues because of such physical and socioeconomic constraints as tract size, terrain condition, and the attitude of forest - land owners toward harvesting.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book addresses the importance of aboveground tree biomass in New York State, forming part of a national study that assesses the timber resources of each state and how they're being used. It provides a historical context by discussing biomass research and the energy crisis of the 1970s, which led to an increased interest in estimating biomass. The book further discusses the significance of the third inventory of New York's timber resources, focusing on aboveground biomass estimates, and explores the potential of using residues and standing timber to meet the growing demand for wood fiber. It concludes by emphasizing how the book's insights can help resource planners, timber harvesters, wood processors, and forest-land managers make informed decisions about the use of New York State's wood fiber supply. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
