Information from the abstract
Long-term changes in forest management are documented across reports, plans, and scientific papers written for different purposes and with changing vocabularies. This makes it difficult to show how a documentary record was converted into a temporal claim. FORM-TRACE is a formula-based workflow that records corpus decisions, extraction quality, domain terms, and calculations before interpretation. We demonstrate it with Harvard Forest and New England documents dated 1908-2026. Of 257 PDFs inspected, 215 met the analytical criteria; 201 were extracted and scored, 14 were flagged as unreadable, scanned, or corrupted, and 42 methods-support references were kept outside the scored corpus. The method provides: • A corpus manifest and extraction log that expose inclusion, exclusion, and coverage gaps; • A keyword-domain matrix and five numbered equations that produce document- and period-level indicators; • Saved score tables, plot data, and validation records that allow independent checking without redistributing copyrighted PDFs. FORM-TRACE measures documented attention rather than management performance and keeps interpretation separate from scoring.
