Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tree Growth and Water Use Response to Thinning in a 47-Year-Old Lodgepole Pine Stand Gross wastage of valuable produc tive capacity occurs Where overly dense stands produce large volumes of wood on many small trees that cannot reach usable size. When reduction in num ber of stems can increase growth rate of the remaining individuals, wood production on usable size trees ih creases, provided the thinning is not too drastic. Furthermore, during the first years after thinning before the reduced number of trees can fully occupy the site, the unused productive capacity will probably show up as in creased water production, or as greater understory growth that may have forage value for grazing animals.
