Abstract
Results showed that the value of implied maximum stand BA converted from three diameter-based MSDR measures was similar to the maximum stand BA curve obtained from the C-R equation. All three MSDR measures provided similar estimates of stand BA carrying capacity, with Nilson's sparsity index yielding the most stable and reliable estimate. The potential stand BA carrying capacity between the two physiographic regions was significantly different. The maximum stand BA associated with planting density developed similarly at the operational and miniature scales.
