Nitrogen dynamics across silvicultural canopy gaps in young forests of western Oregon

Creator:

Thiel, Aaron L.

Abstract:

Silvicultural canopy gaps are emerging as an alternative management tool to accelerate development of complex forest structure in young, even-aged forests of the Pacific Northwest. I investigated patterns of nitrogen (N) availability along transects through 0.1 and 0.4 ha silvicultural gaps in three 50-70 year old Douglas-fir forests of western...

Baseline stream chemistry and soil resources for the Hinkle Creek Research and Demonstration Area Project

Creator:

George, Robert Lance

Abstract:

This research addressed the opportunity to obtain baseline data for both stream chemistry and soil resources for an intensively managed forest watershed, encompassed by the North and South Forks of Hinkle Creek Watershed Research and Demonstration Area Project near Sutherlin, Oregon. A solid representative database for both stream and soil...
