Socioeconomic Predictors of Family Forest Owner Awareness and Use of U.S. Federal Income Tax Provisions

Creator:: Hatcher, John E. Jr, Straka, Thomas J., Cushing, Tamara L., Greene, John L., and Bridges, William C. Jr
Abstract:: Family forest owners (FFOs) control a majority of private forestland in the United States and have widely diverse ownership and management objectives. Many FFOs manage their holdings for timber production and, thus, are concerned with issues such as reforestation incentives and tax treatment of timber revenues. Their actual knowledge of...

Wildfire risk as a socioecological pathology

Creator:: Fischer, A. Paige, Spies, Thomas A., Steelman, Toddi A., Moseley, Cassandra, Johnson, Bart R., Bailey, John D., Ager, Alan A., Bourgeron, Patrick, Charnley, Susan, Collins, Brandon M., Kline, Jeffrey D., Leahy, Jessica E., Littell, Jeremy S., Millington, James D. A., Nielsen-Pincus, Max, Olsen, Christine S., Paveglio, Travis B., Roos, Christopher I., Steen-Adams, Michelle M., Stevens, Forrest R., Vukomanovic, Jelena., White, Eric M., and Bowman, David M. J. S.
Abstract:: Wildfire risk in temperate forests has become a nearly intractable problem that can be characterized as a socioecological “pathology”: that is, a set of complex and problematic interactions among social and ecological systems across multiple spatial and temporal scales. Assessments of wildfire risk could benefit from recognizing and accounting for...

Examination of uncertainty in per unit area estimates of aboveground biomass using terrestrial LiDAR and ground data

Creator:: Shettles, Michael, Hilker, Thomas, and Temesgen, Hailemariam
Abstract:: In estimating aboveground forest biomass (AGB), three sources of error that interact and propagate include (i) measurement error, the quality of the tree-level measurement data used as inputs for the individual-tree equations; (ii) model error, the uncertainty about the equations of the individual trees; and (iii) sampling error, the uncertainty...

Developing Biomass Equations for Western Hemlock and Red Alder Trees in Western Oregon Forests

Creator:: Poudel, Krishna P. and Temesgen, Hailemariam
Abstract:: Biomass estimates are required for reporting carbon, assessing feedstock availability, and assessing forest fire threat. We developed diameter- and height-based biomass equations for Western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla (Raf.) Sarg.) and red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.) trees in Western Oregon. A system of component biomass equations was fitted simultaneously with a...

Spatial and temporal quantification of forest residue volumes and delivered costs

Creator:: Wells, Lucas A., Chung, Woodam, Anderson, Nathaniel M., and Hogland, John S.
Abstract:: Growing demand for bioenergy, biofuels, and bioproducts has increased interests in the utilization of biomass residues from forest treatments as feedstock. In areas with limited history of industrial biomass utilization, uncertainties in the quantity, distribution, and cost of biomass production and logistics can hinder the development of new bio-based industries....

Surface-based GPR underestimates below-stump root biomass

Creator:: Butnor, John R., Samuelson, Lisa J., Stokes, Thomas A., Johnsen, Kurt H., Anderson, Peter H., and González-Benecke, Carlos A.
Abstract:: Aims: While lateral root mass is readily detectable with ground penetrating radar (GPR), the roots beneath a tree (below-stump) and overlapping lateral roots near large trees are problematic for surface-based antennas operated in reflection mode. We sought to determine if tree size (DBH) effects GPR root detection proximal to longleaf...

A Severity Rating System for Evaluating Stand-Level Balsam Woolly Adelgid (Hemiptera: Adelgidae) Damage in Two Abies Species in Western North America

Creator:: Hrinkevich, Kathryn H., Progar, Robert A., and Shaw, David C.
Abstract:: Severity rating systems are fundamental to understanding the impacts of disturbance agents in forest stands. The balsam woolly adelgid (BWA), Adelges piceae (Ratzeburg) (Hemiptera: Adelgidae), is an invasive forest pest in North America that infests and causes mortality in true fir, Abies spp. There is currently no single system for...

The influence of age-specific migration on housing growth in the rural Midwest (USA)

Creator:: Lee, Yohan, Montgomery, Claire A., and Kline, Jeffrey D.
Abstract:: Natural resource policymakers and planners increasingly rely on regional and national-level spatial data describing projections of future housing growth, to anticipate development impacts on natural resources and identify policy and planning needs. Such projections have not always been well-grounded in demographic and other factors that influence population and thus housing...

Evaluating land-use and private forest management responses to a potential forest carbon offset sales program in western Oregon (USA)

Creator:: Latta, Gregory S., Adams, Darius M., Bell, Kathleen P., and Kline, Jeffrey D.
Abstract:: We describe the use of linked land-use and forest sector models to simulate the effects of carbon offset sales on private forest owners' land-use and forest management decisions in western Oregon (USA). Our work focuses on forest management decisions rather than afforestation, allows full forest sector price adjustment to land-use...

Agriculture Afforestation for Carbon Sequestration Under Carbon Markets in the United States: Leakage Behavior from Regional Allowance Programs

Creator:: Haim, David, White, Eric M., and Alig, Ralph J.
Abstract:: This study quantifies how leakage behavior from afforesting agricultural land affects the intensification of agricultural production. In particular, we examine the leakage percentage from carbon offset allowance at specific southern regions in the United States as a part of a carbon market. We use the Forest and Agriculture Sector Optimization...
