Summary: | The paper summarizes the rationale and motives for having implemented and financed the National Forest Inventory in order to clarify a series of questions raised by the criteria taken into account when the sampling grid was design. Although the first cycle of measurements has produced some meaningful data about Romanian forests, some inconsistencies between the public opinion about the forest management and the outcome of the forest inventory have somehow undermined the confidence in the statistic background of the National Forest Inventory. The
alternative, which is a simple accounting of the growing stock as estimated through the management plans is out of question, because only a tenth of the forest fund is being described by accurate data, while another tenth of the growing stock is completely outdated. Other important reasons shall be sought in the LULUCF reporting schemes, the requirements to appraise the carbon stock as well the important role played by the inventory grid in developing new evaluation methods based on remote sensing. |
