Forest Analytics with R
This book presents techniques that are relevant to solving operational foresty problems including sampling, spatial analysis, inventory analysis, estimation of future forest conditions and basic methods for common optimization problems. The goal is to provide forest biometrics scientists and students with a demonstration of how R can be used efficiently to solve common forest biometrical problems.
