An estimation strategy to protect against over-estimating precision in a LiDAR-based prediction of a stand mean
A prediction of a forest stand mean may be biased and its estimated variance seriously underestimated when a model fitted for an ensemble of stands (stratum) does not hold for a specific stand. When the sampling design cannot support a stand-level lack-of-fit analysis, an analyst may opt to seek a p...
