Forest road contracting, construction, and maintenance for small forest woodland owners

Creator:: Kramer, Brian W. and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: This handbook is is a comprehensive guide to building and maintaining cost-effective, environmentally acceptable logging roads. It is aimed specifically at nonindustrial private woodland owners in western Oregon and Washington, but it draws on basic forest road engineering principles and practices applicable in other forestry settings. The text is written,...

Height-diameter equations for six species in the coastal regions of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Hanus, Mark L., Marshall, David D., and Hann, David W.
Abstract:: Three equations for predicting tree height as a function of diameter (outside bark) at breast height are presented for six species found in coastal regions of the Pacific Northwest. Foresters can use these “height–diameter” equations to avoid the time-consuming task of measuring heights of all individual trees in an inventory,...

Contributions to Collaborative Filtering Research

Creator:: Nong, Shuzhen
Abstract:: In this report, I first introduce three areas of interest to collaborative filtering researchers, namely: (a) how to solve the sparsity and scalability problems in recommendation systems; (b) how to rapidly develop and test collaborative filtering algorithms; and (c) how to apply collaborative filtering to unbounded numeric preference data. In...

College of Forestry Integrated Research Project : ecological and socioeconomic responses to alternative silvicultural treatments

Creator:: Maguire, Chris C., Chambers, Carol L., and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: The College of Forestry Integrated Research Project (CFIRP) is an on-going experiment in the eastern Coast Range foothills of western Oregon. Started in 1989, a team of scientists, resource managers, and students at Oregon State University designed and implemented silvicultural alternatives to clearcutting. These silvicultural practices aimed to create and...

Poplar chip production for Willamette Valley grass seed sites

Creator:: Withrow-Robinson, Bradford A., Hibbs, David E., Beuter, John H., and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: This publication is part of a 1-year project funded by the Oregon Department of Agriculture, Alternatives to Field Burning Program. Crop substitution is one strategy for reducing smoke from field burning. The objective of the project was to evaluate the potential for hybrid poplar as an alternative crop for poorly...

Wood pole maintenance manual

Creator:: Morrell, Jeffrey J. and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: The specification, inspection, and remedial treatment of utility poles are addressed. Included are discussions of enhancing specifications for improved performance, techniques for detecting decay and other defects, and chemical treatments available for arresting decay of poles in service.

Production and costs of cut-to-length thinning : experience from the Willamette Young Stand Project

Creator:: Kellogg, L. D. (Loren D.), Spong, Ben, and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Young Douglas-fir stands were commercially thinned to achieve vegetation- and wildlife-related objectives. Harvesting and forwarding production and costs were compared among three mechanized thinning treatments: light thin [(115 residual trees per acre (tpa)], light thin with 0.5-ac openings (92 residual tpa), and heavy thin (53 residual tpa). The sites were...

Practical methodology for operational layout of commercial skyline thinning systems

Creator:: Cornell, Jennie L., Kellogg, L. D. (Loren D.), and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: On-the-ground harvest unit layout, especially in skyline-thinning operations, is critical to meeting multiple resource objectives of the land manager and maintaining the economic viability of the timber harvesting operator. This phase of an operation can optimize the layout and harvesting of a sale or unit. Detailed layout by a knowledgeable...

Tractor thinning productivity and costs : experience from the Willamette Young Stand Project

Creator:: Kellogg, L. D. (Loren D.), Davis, Chad T. (Chad Thomas), and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Harvesting productivity rates and costs were determined for three silvicultural treatments used in commercial ground-based thinning of young stands to achieve timber management objectives and enhance wildlife habitat. Treatment definitions were based on residual trees per acre (tpa) after thinning. The treatments were light thin (115 residual tpa), light thin...
