Hierarchical models for small area estimation using zero-inflated forest inventory variables: comparison and implementation
Grayson W. White, Andrew O. Finley, Josh K. Yamamoto +5
National Forest Inventory (NFI) data are typically limited to sparse networks of sample locations due to cost constraints. While design-based estimators provide reliable forest par…

Leveraging national forest inventory data to estimate forest carbon density status and trends for small areas
Elliot S. Shannon, Andrew O. Finley, Paul B. May +5
National forest inventory (NFI) data are often costly to collect, which inhibits efforts to estimate parameters of interest for small spatial, temporal, or biophysical domains. Tra…

Spatio-temporal areal models to support small area estimation: An application to national-scale forest carbon monitoring
Elliot S. Shannon, Andrew O. Finley, Paul B. May +4
National Forest Inventory (NFI) programs can provide vital information on the status, trend, and change in forest parameters. These programs are being increasingly asked to provide…
