Effects of stand density reduction on structural development in western Oregon Douglas-fir forests : a reconstruction study

Creator:

Bailey, John Duff, 1961-

Abstract:

This research examined thinning effects on stand structure and species composition in 50- to 120-year-old Douglas-fir forests. Thirty-two paired stands (thinned and unthinned) were measured throughout western Oregon, as were 20 old-growth stands for comparison. Thinnings occurred 10 to 24 years previously and ranged in intensity from 8 to 60%...
