Simulating Wood Properties in the Context of a Growth and Yield Model for Planted Douglas-fir

Creator:

Osborne, Nathaniel L.

Abstract:

Forest growth and yield models are critical to supporting decision making in forestry, but often lack considerations for wood properties. The feasibility of simulating wood properties in the context of a Douglas-fir individual tree growth and yield model was evaluated. This assessment explored the effect of predicted sapwood width, stem...

Modeling biomass transport on single lane forest roads and monitoring GPS accuracy for vehicle tracking under different forest canopy conditions

Creator:

Simwanda, Matamyo

Abstract:

The transportation of wood and biomass resources from landing and other collection locations to processing and distribution sites is a substantial cost within the wood supply chain. These high costs provide a basis for research aimed at improving biomass transportation planning decisions and potentially reducing biomass transportation costs. Chip vans...
