Sheng-I Yang
Specialization: Forest biometrics, Forest Inventory, Growth and yield modeling
Sheng-I Yang works as an Assistant Professor of Forest Biometrics in the Department of Forestry, Wildlife and Fisheries at the University of Tennessee. He is interested in developing efficient sampling strategies and models for planted and natural forests in order to inform decision making. His research topics include: (1) Tree/stand competition and stand dynamics, (2) Forest inventory and sampling, (3) Forest growth and carbon, (4) Stem taper and bark thickness and (5) Timber product and wood utilization. In addition to research, he has been devoted to forest biometrics, applied statistics and geospatial education. He was listed as a faculty member of the Intercollegiate Graduate Statistics Program at the University of Tennessee. Sheng-I Yang currently serves as a (1) Deputy officer of 4.01.03 Instruments and methods in forest mensuration in the International Union of Forest Research Organizations (IUFRO), and (2) as an Associate Editor for Journal of Forestry and Forest Ecosystems.
