Wood Research United States Bibliography; Forests and forestry Research United States Bibliography; Forest fires Research United States; Insect pests Research United States; Forest management Bibliography. An Efficient Method for Inventorying Understory Vegetation To meet the increasing demand for inte- grated resource information, Forest Survey has expanded traditionally timber oriented inventories to include data on understory vegetation. An efficient procedure for inventorying understory vegetation on forested plots has been developed and is currently being used by Forest Survey in the western Intermoun- tain Region. Combined overstory and understory data can be summarized in a vegetation profile—a graphic display of the horizontal and vertical structure of the vegetation on a plot. This basic information about the plant community can be used for evaluating wildlife hab- itat, grazing use potential, and land productivity in terms of biomass. 48 Layer 3 feet and above Layer 2 to feet Layer 1 0 to feet. 1/20—Acre plot —Foot radius Layers for sampling forest understory Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original United States.
