Abstract
The Finnish forests have been measured eight times in the National Forest Inventory (NFI). The first inventory was carried out in 1921–1924, and the eighth in 1986–1994. In 1994, the oldest part of the data was updated by remeasuring 38 % of the field plots in South Finland. The field measurements of the updated eight inventory theRefsore come from the period 1989–1994 (Tomppo and Henttonen 1996). This inventory is denoted here by NFI8+. The 9th NFI commenced in 1996.
