You are asked to assess that status of a population of a tree species and are given only one month to make your assessment. You conduct a field survey in which you determine the age of all living trees in the population.

Age class (yrs) | Number of trees |
1-9 | 0 |
10-19 | 1 |
20-29 | 0 |
30-39 | 22 |
40-49 | 63 |
50-59 | 15 |
