A meeting was held a few weeks ago in Québec City on statistics and
forest management, with uncertainty as a central theme in most of the 20
or so invited talks. Tim Gregoire presented a fascinating opening talk
about the unresolved issue of propagating jointly model uncertainty and
sampling design uncertainty. Ron McRoberts presented a talk about
variance estimation within a k-NN imputation exercise. The meeting ended
on presentations by Bruce Borders and Annika Kangas on the opportunity
costs associated with uncertainties in forest inventories. The
presentation pdfs are on the meeting web site: http://www.crm.umontreal.ca/Forest11/horaire_e.php
