Creator:: Arellano Ogaz, Eduardo
Abstract:: Soil physical, chemical, and biological components as well as climate and physiographic characteristics can interact to have a great effect on forest regeneration and seedling growth response to different establishment activities. The objective of this project was to increase the understanding of the interactions between soil type, controlled-release fertilizers, and...

Creator:: Alzugaray Oswald, Patricio Javier
Abstract:: To study the combined effects of seedling quality and fertilization at the time of planting, three experiments were established in western Oregon during the winter of 2000. The first experiment investigated the effect of preplanting rootvolume and fertilization rate on the field performance of 1+1 Douglas-fir seedlings during two growing...

Creator:: Eckert, Amy I.
Abstract:: Western white pine historically dominated northern Idaho’s forested landscape and was the Inland Empire’s most economically important tree. White pine blister rust, caused by the exotic fungus Cronartium ribicola, played a principal role in the decline of western white pine. The pathogen causes branch and bole cankers, which usually girdle...

Creator:: Lindsay, Amanda A.
Abstract:: Northeastern Oregon geology and climate provides moderately productive conditions for forest management and timber production. Although site preparation and planting are commonly used silvicultural practices, little research exists on the efficacy of specific forest herbicides and responses of seedling survival and growth in this region. This research seeks to improve...

Abstract:: Coastal Douglas-fir (Psuedotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) 1 + 1 seedlings were fertilized with two types of fertilizers (NB4NO3+K2SO4 and (NH.4)2 SO4+KC1) at four rates (0, 80, 160, 320 kg N and K/ha) split over 3 application dates (September 19, October 13, November 1, 1996). By January 10, total Kjeldahl nitrogen...

Abstract:: These studies are part of the Demonstration of Ecosystem Management Options (DEMO) study, a program researching the effects of different levels and patterns of green-tree retention on ecological, economic, and social phenomena. We restricted our studies to the 15% basal area, evenly dispersed retention treatment. Our objectives were, first, to...

Creator:: Taylor, Michael Monroe
Abstract:: Douglas-fir (Psudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedlings were outplanted on eight dates (every three weeks from mid-August 2005 through mid-January 2006). On each plant date, seedlings from a conventional dormancy (CONV) induction treatment, including moisture and nutrient stress, and a shortened daylength (SD) treatment were outplanted on three western Oregon sites...
