Options Compared. Two separate sets of adjusted44 NSYTs were developed and compared for evaluation. The ‘Base’ set of NSYTs corresponded to the NSYTs that utilized all available PSP data, plus PSP- based plot ages where available. The ‘Combined Sensitivity’ set of NSYTs included the replacement of PSP-based plot ages with AVI stand ages for all GYPSY forecasts, plus the removal of all GYPSY projections that exceeded a gross merchantable volume threshold of 600 m3/ha. The base and combined sensitivity NSYT options were then compared by yield group for the conifer, deciduous, and total species groups (Figure 16 to Figure 20). 44 Both sets of NSYTs included the combined adjustments for model bias removal, LT reduction, and inclusion of mortality functions.
