SUMMARY

The 1988 survey of the Ozark Unit in Arkansas showed several changes since the 1978 survey.

* Timberland area now covers 5729.6 thousand acres, up 10 percent since 1978.

* Private ownership accounts for 4417.1 thousand acres, up 11 percent.

* Area covered by loblolly-shortleaf forest type is up 16 percent.

* Oak-pine forest types showed a 22 percent increase in acreage.

* Bottomland hardwood forest types increased by 66.2 thousand acres, 48 percent.

* Sawtimber stands increased 30 per- cent, poletimber stands increased 26 percent, sapling-seedling stands de- creased 29 percent.

* Plantation acreage is up 74 percent.

* Softwood volumes have increased; 26 percent for growing stock, 25 percent for sawtimber.

* Iiardwcod volumes have increased, 39 percent for growing stock, 54 percent for sawtimber.

* Softwood growth and removals de- creased for both growing stock and sawtimber.

* Hardwood growth estimates for grow- ing stock and sawtimber are up sub- stantially from the 1978 estimates.

* Removals of hardwood growing stock have decreased, while removals of hardwood sawtimber have increased.

* Mortality estimates are up more than 90 percent.

FOREWORD

The Southern Forest Survey, an activ- ity of the Southern Forest Experiment Sta- tion Forest Inventory and Analysis work unit, covers the States of Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and East Texas, and the island of Puerto Rico.

This survey is part of the nationwide Forest Survey originally authorized by the McSweeney-McNary Act of 1928. More re- cent legislation pertinent to the survey mis- sion includes the Forest and Rangeland Renewable Resources Planning Act of 1974 and the Forest and Rangeland Renewable Re- sources Research Act of 1978. The survey mission is to develop, analyze, and maintain renewable forest resource information. This information is essential for formulation of for- est policies and programs.

The nnmber of live trees has changed very little, u s only .6 percent since the 1978 survey, A slight decrease in the number of Eve hardwood trees, down 4 percent, is offset by the 19 percent increase in live softwood trees, This decrease in live hardwood trees O C C ~ T S entitejy in the 2-inch and 4-inch di-
