Soil surface effects on soil water, soil temperature, and Douglas-fir seedling injury following radiation frost damage events

Creator:

Melton, Lisa L.

Abstract:

A microclimatology study was conducted on a high elevation clearcut near the summit of Mt. Ashland in southwest Oregon to evaluate the effects of frost on Douglas-fir seedling growth and survival. Frost and low temperatures cause seedling stress through frost damage, frost desiccation, increased root resistance, and decreased rates of...
