Nonnative
Invasive Species on Forest Land
USDA Forest Service Forest Inventory and Analysis surveys
UNDER
CONSTRUCTION! The following are early
county-level mapped results of selected
nonnative invasive species surveys on forest land for 11 States.
October 2001-September 2004. Readers are cautioned that
these maps depict "estimates" of
the probability of colonization, which varies with county size,
observers,
extent of forest land within the county, and sample intensity. These
results also represent
a preliminary
review draft and subject to change as new information becomes available. At
present, sample
intensity varies widely by State. For more details, contact Vic
