Abstract
A range of issues affecting southern forests are addressed, including pine and hardwood silviculture, soil and water, physiology and genetics, carbon and bioenergy, fire and fuels, forest health, restoration, growth and yield, and forest economics.Titles contained within Proceedings of the 16th biennial southern silvicultural research conference
