Abstract

The current stocking before and after proposed first thinning intervention of 17-y-old Araucaria hunsteinii stand in compartment 1C1 Kemasul Forest Reserve Pahang was investigated. The dominant height and diameter of the stand were 23.9 m and 27.8 cm respectively and the average height and diameter 20.3 m and 19.8 cm respectively. The stand volume was 279.75 m3ha-1. Two hundred and seven trees were selected as potential final crop trees (PCT) and 187 trees were to be removed in the first thinning. The average: height and diameter of PCT were slightly above the average values of the total stand. The mean live crown (ratio of green crown length and total tree length in percent) was 32.5.
