Abstract The relationship between plot size and sample variance as affected by the spatial patterns of trees, volume, and basal area is reported. This information is useful for practicing foresters in determining the best combination of sample size, plot area, or basal area factor in forest surveys. North. J. Appl. For. 9(1):3-6.
