Field measurement of cable tensions for skyline logging systems

Creator:: Sessions, John and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: In recent years, a great deal of research in North America has been directed toward refining methods of assessing the load-carrying capability of skyline systems. Little effort has been directed, however, toward field measurement of cable tensions for skyline logging systems to facilitate initial tensioning of unloaded skylines or to...

Soil compaction from low ground-pressure, torsion-suspension logging vehicles on three forest soils

Creator:: Froehlich, Henry A. and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Monitoring soil density on three sites during repeated trips with a high-speed skidder showed that: During the first 20 trips, soil density primarily increased between depths of 2 to 4 inches; Density increased most during the first few trips; Density continued to increase slowly in amount and depth with the...

Voluntary Environmental Programs at an Alpine Ski Area: Visitor Perceptions, Attachment, Value Orientations, and Specialization

Creator:: Needham, Mark D. and Little, Christopher M.
Abstract:: This article examines visitor perceptions of voluntary environmental programs (VEPs) at the Mt. Bachelor ski area in Oregon, USA by examining what they know about VEPs, how these programs influence motivations to visit this area currently and in the future, and how place attachment, value orientations, and specialization influence these...

Public Involvement in Natural Resource Decision Making: Goals, Methodology, and Evaluation

Creator:: Lawrence, Rick L. and Daniels, Steven E.
Abstract:: This paper provides a primer on research in the field of public involvement in natural resource decision making. Previous studies are synthesized and organized into three areas: (1 ) goals of public involvement, (2) principles related to implementing public involvement programs, and (3) evaluation of public involvement methods. A bibliography...

Questions about optimal bucking

Creator:: Olsen, Eldon D. and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: A compilation of Oregon State University research work on computer-aided crosscutting (bucking) of trees into logs. Major considerations for deciding whether to adopt optimal bucking and steps to implement it are described. The bulletin references field studies which evaluated and tested prototype optimal bucking systems.

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...

Statistical comparison of methods used in harvesting work studies

Creator:: Olsen, Eldon D., Hossain, Mohammad M., Miller, Mark E., and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Work-study guidelines were developed using field data from thinning sites in the Oregon Cascade Range. Regression of detailed time study and shift-level data predicted harvesting production rates. Statistical analysis showed the relative difference in the discriminating power between shift-level studies versus detailed time studies. Indicator variables tested if there were...

Formalizing decisions: A case study on collaborative zones of agreement

Creator:: Nuss, Meagan and Davis, Emily Jane
Abstract:: We conducted a case study of the process for developing ZOA created by the Blue Mountains Forest Partners (BMFP), a collaborative group established in 2006 and focused on the northern portion of the Malheur National Forest in Grant County. This group was one of the first to formalize their ZOA,...

Conserving energy by safe and environmentally acceptable practices in maintaining and procuring transmission poles: annual report ; August 1981

Creator:: Oregon State University and Oregon State University. Department of Forest Products
Abstract:: ABSTRACT Fumigants. Chioropicrin, Vapam and Vorlex continue to control Internal decay of Douglas-fir poles 11 years after application. Methylisothiocyanate (MIT), which was melted and poured into holes in Douglas-fir poles 3-years ago and goes directly from a solid to a gas in the wood, appears promising In controlling decay fungi....
