Predict 10-year volume for the “Sam Land” tract, its total volume production and explain your results? (10 points)

Compare the differences in the growth and development characteristics of even-aged and uneven-aged stands. Evaluate their characteristics with regards to trees per acre, mortality of volume, average tree diameter, diameter distributions and timber growth rates over time.
