Thanks to Ralph Winter for the figures – the finger on the pulse

While data will never be perfect, it is getting better and with it we can better understand what we have and where we want to

go. Ralph’s last day is tomorrow. And he knows where he is going - Hawaii

So I ask you all join me in thanking Ralph for his unbridled dedication to the ART and SCIENCE of Silviculture - May he

enjoy the next leg of the journey

Now on with the show!
