Abstract
Stand density (degree of crowding of trees within stocked areas) was studied in relation to formation and yield of juvenile red alder (Alnusrubra Bong.) stands. Large variations in tree size and biomass of fully-stocked stands were associated with differences in stand density. Measurement of density in addition to stocking (the fraction of area occupied by trees) will improve biomass studies. It will also facilitate comparisons of biomass results with existing information from spacing studies and yield tables.
