Twenty-year diameter and basal area growth of young pin oak stands subjected to two flooding and six thinning treatments were evaluated in the Mingo Basin of southeastern Missouri. Dormant season flooding did not significantly inhibit basal area growth. However, stand structure and density did affect basal area growth rate differently over time. Properly thinned stands can benefit both timber and waterfowl production.
