Abstract
A method is proposed for adjusting small-sample-based stock and stand table entries from point, double sampling with a ratio of means estima tor. The proposed adjustment uses the characteristics of the ratio of means estimator, ensures that totals from the stock and stand tables m atch the large sample estimates, and preserves the volume - basal area ratio by DBH class before and after adjustment. Bias and variance est imates for the adjusted stock table entries are presented.
