Abstract

This paper examines the relationships of pollution-induced forest damage, optimal age of stand harvest, and timber supply from a theoretical perspective. Since future levels of forest damage will be important determinants of harvesting and silvicultural practices and thus of wood supply, they must be explicitly taken into account in any realistic analysis of alternative scenarios of future forest decline and appropriate policy responses.
