Clearcut and shelterwood reproduction methods for regenerating southwest Oregon forests

Creator:: Tesch, S. D., Mann, John William, and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Clearcut and shelterwood reproduction methods are both important, silviculturally viable reforestation tools for southwest Oregon. The ecology of local forests lends itself to the successful application of either method, in most cases; thus, choice of method is typically based on land management objectives, which integrate social and resource values, economics,...

Abstract:: Regression models of height growth and survival were fitted to aggregate data for trees, protected and not protected from animal damage, that had been surveyed on Douglas-fir and ponderosa pine plantations in Oregon and Washington. Animal damage significantly affected both height and survival. Dynamic programming analysis-using both soil expectation (Se)...

Logging planning and layout costs for thinning : experience from the Willamette Young Stand Project

Creator:: Kellogg, L. D. (Loren D.), Milota, Ginger, Stringham, Bennett, and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Logging planning and layout costs were examined for commercial thinning of 40- to 50-yr-old stands of Douglas-fir on the Willamette National Forest in the Cascade Mountains of Oregon. The study consisted of four replications of three silvicultural treatments. Thinning involved three types of logging systems: mechanized cut-to-length (a combination of...

Tractor thinning productivity and costs : experience from the Willamette Young Stand Project

Creator:: Kellogg, L. D. (Loren D.), Davis, Chad T. (Chad Thomas), and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Harvesting productivity rates and costs were determined for three silvicultural treatments used in commercial ground-based thinning of young stands to achieve timber management objectives and enhance wildlife habitat. Treatment definitions were based on residual trees per acre (tpa) after thinning. The treatments were light thin (115 residual tpa), light thin...
