Abstract
Abstract Height-age and site-index curves were developed from stem analysis of 262 Douglas-fir trees (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. glauca) from 68 plots in the Interior Douglas-fir, Interior Cedar-Hemlock, and Sub-boreal Spruce Biogeoclimatic zones in the interior of British Columbia. Plots ranged in site index from about 8 to 30 m and in age from about 60 to 350 years; however, the analyses were limited to data up to 100 years of age. A conditioned logistic function was selected for predicting height, and a linear model was selected for predicting site index. The curves are similar to those developed in comparable studies in the Inland Empire, but differ substantially from curves developed in British Columbia from temporary sample plots. This study supports previous observations that the pattern of height growth for a given site index varies among ecologically different areas. West. J. Appl. For. 7(1):20-25.
