Tóm tắt	Stand basal area is a fundamental forest mensuration metric representing the total cross-sectional area of tree stems per unit land area, typically expressed in square meters per hectare. Formalized across twentieth-century forestry literature (notably by Husch, Beers, and Kershaw), basal area serves as a key indicator of forest density, biomass accumulation, and competitive pressure, essential for yield prediction and stand management planning.	Forest inventory sampling is a systematic approach to estimate forest characteristics such as timber volume, species composition, and biomass by surveying a representative subset of trees rather than conducting exhaustive censuses. Developed by Loetsch and colleagues in the 1970s, the method applies statistical sampling theory to forest assessment and remains the foundation for sustainable forest management and resource monitoring worldwide.
