Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores different approaches to estimating the value of logs based on their size and quality, focusing on residual value appraisal. The author, a forestry expert, examines seven empirical lumber recovery data sets from western conifer studies and evaluates three models for gross product value estimation: a direct model based on log dimensions, an intermediate model incorporating lumber recovery, and a detailed model considering lumber grades. The author discusses the statistical properties, accuracy, and information provided by each model, concluding that the direct and intermediate models offer a simpler and more accurate estimate of log value, while the detailed model provides comprehensive information on lumber quality and recovery proportions, making it valuable for forest management analysis.
