Example of Model Output: Left: Average C stock (Mg C per hectare) for a 500 years simulation for a longleaf stand with Rotation length=80 years, SI=80 ft, PD=600 trees per acre, thinned at BA=75 ft2 per acre when BA reached 110 ft2 per acre. Right: Time series of In Situ (upper panel) and Ex Situ (lower panel) C Pools.
