Vale Adrian Norman Goodwin

Abstract

Adrian Goodwin was a highly valued associate editor of Australian Forestry for nearly ten years. In this role he was responsive, efficient and constructive—he clearly wanted to help contributors in their efforts to publish high-quality science, and he provided valuable and detailed comments and advice. Australian Forestry’s associate editors are volunteers, and they are essential for ensuring the high quality of published papers. Adrian’s contributions were greatly appreciated and will be sorely missed. The following obituary, written by Andy Warner, was published originally in The Forester. Adrian Goodwin was a gifted biometrician who had the unique talents of a disciplined statistical approach coupled with a keen interest in practical applications of complex growth and yield models in tree-related applications.
