Creator:: Monleon-Moscardo, Vicente J.
Abstract:: The effects of prescribed burning on the rates of recent litter decomposition, nitrogen and phosphorus release from litter, soil total and inorganic nitrogen pools, and net nitrogen mineralization were determined in ponderosa pine sites that had been burned 0.3, 5 or 12 years earlier. Prescribed burning decreased litter decomposition rates...

Creator:: Landsberg, Johanna Dobrot
Abstract:: Tree growth and soil nutrient responses to prescribed underburning were determined for a period of up to 12 years at four sites in northcentral and central Oregon ponderosa pine stands (Pinus ponderosa Dougl. ex Laws). Differences reported are significant at a = 0.10. During the first 4-growing-season-measurement period after underburning,...

Creator:: Grossmann, Emilie B.
Abstract:: I conducted two separate studies, both related to the impacts of spring and fall prescribed fire on ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Dougl. ex Loud.) forest soils in Eastern Oregon. The studies were either conducted at or linked to four stands of ponderosa pine, in the Malheur National Forest. Each stand...

Creator:: Duane, Maureen V.
Abstract:: Prescribed burning is increasingly being used as a management tool to reduce potential fuels on the forest floor and promote stand vigor through removal of dense, crowded vegetation. Because fire affects both the standing vegetation and the amount of downed wood in the ecosystem, it is imperative to examine how...

Creator:: Kraemer, James Fred
Abstract:: The succession of plants over a period of 25 years was analyzed on clearcut areas in the western Cascades of Washington and Oregon. Thirty-three paired burned and unburned plots were reexamined in 1975. Data were combined with records from prior examinations by Morris (1970). Cover trends of six major brush...

Creator:: Boucher, Tina V.
Abstract:: The Chugach National Forest has been using prescribed fire as a wildlife habitat management tool since l977. Between 1977 and 1997 about 4,000 hectares have been burned on the Kenai Peninsula to promote regeneration of woody plant species used by moose (Alces alces). Browse species include paper birch (Betula papyrifera),...

Creator:: Kangas, Michael
Abstract:: Delayed tree mortality is an unpredictable occurrence when prescribed burning is implemented. Fire scorched trees may die as the result of crown scorching, stem charring, root injury, bark beetle attack, or through a combination of these factors. This study examined ponderosa pine mortality and the incidence of two bark beetle...
