The dynamics of stands in the mid-elevation old-growth
Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) forests of the central western
Oregon Cascade Range were investigated using stand structure
analysis. Trees with different growth rates were commonly present
in the same stand, which resulted often in a weak correlation
between tree diameter and age. Thus,...
Three experiments were conducted to evaluate the various
methods and application rates of ferrous sulfate-heptahydrate in
the control of atmospheric ammonia in an enclosed broiler house.
The first experiment was conducted to determine the optimal
rate of application of ferrous sulfate-heptahydrate on built-up
litter. Ferrous sulfate was applied on built-up...
In the thinning theory, the hypothesis that the stand
growth is unaffected by the density over a broad range of
densities is generally accepted today.
In this study three different measures of stand density
were used in basal area growth and volume growth
multiple regressions in even-aged managed stands, searching...
Arctostanhylos viscida is a broad-leaved, evergreen, sclerophylbus shrub which grows in northern California and the Siskiyou
Mountain region of southwest Oregon. After site disturbance, A. viscida competes with conifer regeneration, and may dominate a site for ninety years. This study examined the rate at which full site occupancy occurs in...
