Author Description

The Windows version of STIM (Stand and Tree Integrated Model) integrates a graphical user interface with a FORTRAN computational program to provide a forest growth and yield model that can be used for inventory updates, allowable cut calculations, and management planning. This STIM user manual describes software installation, hardware/software requirements, using the main interface, menus (options, stand input, growing a stand, stand treatment), and generation of graphs and reports. The appendix contains a list of error messages, definitions of terms, and a list of command line keywords. Sample screens are included.
