  • An econometric analysis of output supply and input demand in the Oregon softwood lumber and plywood industries

    Creator:
    Guerrero Ochoa, Isabel G.
    Abstract:
    The present study employs a normalized restricted quadratic profit function approach to estimate lumber and plywood supply and Marshallian factor demand elasticities for four region-product combinations in Oregon for the period 1970-2010. The four log demand functions will be employed as the "demand side" of the log market model of...

  • Radiative forcing and forest climate policy

    Creator:
    Thompson, Matthew P.
    Abstract:
    This thesis is comprised of two manuscripts that relate to forest-based management strategies in the context of market-based climate change mitigation policies. The work questions the appropriateness of a singular focus on carbon sequestration given the albedo effect and its possible countervailing climatic impacts. Through a review of salient literature...

  • Carbon flux patterns on U.S. public timberlands under alternative timber harvest policies

    Creator:
    Shanks, Alyssa V.
    Abstract:
    This study considers trade-offs between timber harvest and carbon sequestration on National Forest and other public lands by contemporaneously linking a model of public harvest and inventory to a carbon accounting system. The public harvest model treats three harvest scenarios. The first minimizes the cost of meeting harvest requests that...
