Riparian areas that can be used as reference sites on which to base goals of vegetation restoration have not been documented in the Oregon Coast Range. I examined the composition and distribution of unmanaged riparian ov ...

I examined factors regulating decomposition rates of red alder (Alnus rubra)) and Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) leaf litter in Coast Range riparian areas in western Oregon. Overall, this study was designed to exam ...

We conducted capture and acoustic surveys for bats in six areas along a latitudinal gradient in Southeast Alaska from mid-May to September in 2005 and we continued surveys on Prince of Wales Island from mid-May to Septem ...

The effect of solution nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) concentrations on biomass production and N₂ fixation of red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.) seedlings grown in perlite-filled pots in a climate controlled growth room ...

Forest managers of public lands in western Oregon and Washington have become increasingly interested in creating additional conifer cohorts in young, even-aged, second-growth Douglas-fir stands. The purpose of our resear ...

Two rectangular 10-ha plots (200 x 500 m) were established in each of the two main forest types of the Ituri Forest, Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly Zaire). The description of stand structure and species diversi ...

Vegetation provides food for many insects, and many insects serve as food for bats. We investigated the linkages among these three trophic levels in riparian areas throughout the Oregon Coast Range by examining the infl ...

The amount and quality of competition among individuals in developing plant communities is an important factor determining community structure, composition and development. In perennial plant communities, this competiti ...

More so than for conifers, the time you spend managing hardwoods will be returned to you in increased wood production, increased quality (and so value), and shorter rotations.
