Abstract

A previously reported site index model with unconstrained parameter estimates may not be amenable to extrapolation. A modification is presented that is more robust and has no apparent shortcomings. Results of fitting both models to white spruce (Piceaglauca (Moench) Voss) and aspen (Populustremuloides Michx.) data sets are presented and discussed.
