I wouldn't nitpick but it's an order of magnitude.
- JoeAltmaier 12y agoThanks! Mistyped, should have been '4'. Still, there are 4000+ square meters to an acre. That remains two orders of magnitude larger than a mature forest should have.
- whorleater 12y agoIt's also mentioned in the article that not all trees survive, meaning that the density would actually be slightly less than how it's planted.
- JoeAltmaier 12y agoSo slightly less than 16,000 trees per acre?
