Amounts of natural debris in small headwater streams under old growth
stands of Douglas-fir vary from 6 1/2 tons per 100 ft. of stream
to 26 tons per 100 ft. of stream, depending on terrain and timber
characteristics ...

The response to various levels of stand density by natural Douglas-fir regeneration,
shrub and sprouting hardwood species was studied in the mixed-evergreen-forests of
southwest Oregon. Partial-cut old growth (harveste ...

Rubber without reinforcement has limited applications. The strength of reinforced rubber composites can be ten times stronger than that of unreinforced rubbers. Therefore, rubber composites are widely used in various a ...
White pitch deposits originated from the wood
extractives, synthetic polymers, and additives used in the
papermaking process, etc. may cause numerous problems to the
papermaking process and also degrade the product qu ...
Despite the critical ecological roles of structural features in forests, ecologically
relevant quantitative measures of structure that allow comparisons among forest stands
are still limited. A new index, the structura ...
In this study, triglycidylamine (TGA) was synthesized and evaluated as a crosslinking agent for soy flour (SF) for making five-ply plywood from yellow poplar. Glycerol polyglycidyl ether (GPE) and trimethylolpropane trig ...
Litter nutrient dynamics contribute significantly to biogeochemical cycling in
forest ecosystems. These dynamics may be influenced by site attributes, litter nutrient concentrations, and soil nutrient availability eithe ...
Silvicultural canopy gaps are emerging as an alternative management tool to accelerate development of complex forest structure in young, even-aged forests of the Pacific Northwest. I investigated patterns of nitrogen (N) ...
Red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.) is recognized as an important source of nitrogen to
ecosystems that it inhabits. I examined N dynamics within alder trees, alder leaf litter, and the soil beneath alder leaf litter. ¹⁵Nitro ...
Red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.), scotch broom (Cytisus scoparius L.) and snowbrush (Ceanothus velutinus Dougi ) were planted under precommercially thinned Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga iuenziesil Mirb Franco) in the central Ore ...
