Abstract

Two important concepts in forest stand density management !a the maximum basal area carrying capacity and the maximusize-density relationship (MSDR) for individual stands !a are mathematically related. For stands with a MSDR slope lesthan 2, maximum basal area carrying capacity will occur after a stand has reached its MSDR stage of stand development, or after Reineke!?s SDI has been maximized. Maximum basal area carrying capacity and the MSDR stage of stand developmen will occur simultaneously in a stand that has a MSDR slope equal to 2. If a MSDR!?s slope is greater than 2, a stand will reac its maximum basal area carrying capacity prior to reaching its MSDR stage of stand development.
