Estimating Canopy Cover from Standard Forest Inventory Measurements in Western Oregon

Creator:: McIntosh, Anne C.S., Gray, Andrew N., and Garman, Steven L.
Abstract:: Reliable measures of canopy cover are important in the management of public and private forests. However, direct sampling of canopy cover is both labor- and time-intensive. More efficient methods for estimating percent canopy cover could be empirically derived relationships between more readily measured stand attributes and canopy cover or, alternatively,...

Evaluating rural Pacific Northwest towns for wildfire evacuation vulnerability

Creator:: Dye, Alex W., Kim, John B., McEvoy, Andrew, Fang, Fang, and Riley, Karin L.
Abstract:: Wildfire is an annual threat for many rural communities in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. In some severe events, evacuation is one potential course of action to gain safety from an advancing wildfire. Since most evacuations occur in a personal vehicle along the surrounding road network, the...

A large proportion of North American net ecosystem production is offset by emissions from harvested products, river/stream evasion, and biomass burning

Creator:: Turner, David P., Jacobson, Andrew R., Ritts, William D., Wang, Weile L., and Nemani, Ramakrishna
Abstract:: Diagnostic carbon cycle models produce estimates of net ecosystem production (NEP, the balance of net primary production and heterotrophic respiration) by integrating information from (i) satellite-based observations of land surface vegetation characteristics; (ii) distributed meteorological data; and (iii) eddy covariance flux tower observations of net ecosystem exchange (NEE) (used in...

Causes and implications of the correlation between forest productivity and tree mortality rates

Creator:: Stephenson, Nathan L., van Mantgem, Phillip J., Bunn, Andrew G., Bruner, Howard, Harmon, Mark E., O'Connell, Kari B., Urban, Dean L., and Franklin, Jerry F.
Abstract:: At global and regional scales, tree mortality rates are positively correlated with forest net primary productivity (NPP). Yet causes of the correlation are unknown, in spite of potentially profound implications for our understanding of environmental controls of forest structure and dynamics and, more generally, our understanding of broad-scale environmental controls...

Ecological effects of alternative fuel-reduction treatments: highlights of the National Fire and Fire Surrogate study (FFS)

Creator:: McIver, James D., Stephens, Scott L., Agee, James K., Barbour, Jamie, Boerner, Ralph E. J., Edminster, Carl B., Erickson, Karen L., Farris, Kerry L., Fettig, Christopher J., Fiedler, Carl E., Haase, Sally, Hart, Stephen C., Keeley, Jon E., Knapp, Eric E., Lehmkuhl, John F., Moghaddas, Jason J., Otrosina, William, Outcalt, Kenneth W., Schwilk, Dylan W., Skinner, Carl N., Waldrop, Thomas A., Weatherspoon, C. Phillip, Yaussy, Daniel A., Youngblood, Andrew, and Zack, Steve
Abstract:: The 12-site National Fire and Fire Surrogate study (FFS) was a multivariate experiment that evaluated ecological consequences of alternative fuel-reduction treatments in seasonally dry forests of the US. Each site was a replicated experiment with a common design that compared an un-manipulated control, prescribed fire, mechanical and mechanical + fire...

Abstract:: It is well established that individual organisms can acclimate and adapt to temperature to optimize their functioning. However, thermal optimization of ecosystems, as an assemblage of organisms, has not been examined at broad spatial and temporal scales. Here, we compiled data from 169 globally distributed sites of eddy covariance and...
