Creator:: Kellogg, L. D. (Loren D.), Bettinger, Pete, 1962-, Studier, Donald D., and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: "The purpose of this publication is to compile a standardized set of terminology for mechanized logging machinery and logging methods for the Pacific Northwest. While other organizations have produced similar works with either a wider or narrower focus (Dean and Evans 1978, Mifflin and Lysons 1979, Ford-Robertson 1983, Granvik et...

Abstract:: Our diagram is intended to provide general guidance in density management of red alder. The management zone defines a reasonable compromise between individual-tree and stand growth and mortality. Factors considered in its formation include desired tree size at harvest, growth rate, and yield per acre. Social and legal constraints, as...

Creator:: Studier, Donald D. and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Carriages may be classified as slackpulling or non-slackpulling, and the slackpulling carriages may be further classified by how they accomplish the slackpulling function. Slackpulling carriages provide the skyline with lateral yarding capability and therefore can be used in a variety of silvicultural prescriptions. Non-slackpulling carriages can include either chokers or...

Creator:: Zumrawi, Abdel Azim, Hann, David W., and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Equations for predicting diameter growth are an essential component of single-tree growth and yield models (Munro 1974). Diameter growth predictions are used to characterize individual-tree development and to project the growth of stand basal area and volume. Both diameter growth and basal area growth have been used as the dependent...

Creator:: Bettinger, Pete, 1962-, Kellogg, L. D. (Loren D.), Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory, and Olsen, Eldon D.
Abstract:: Recognition of the problems and opportunities in mechanized harvesting should help in development of solutions and maximum realization of its potential. This paper presents feedback from five working groups, the members of which were involved in mechanized harvesting issues with various organizations in the Pacific Northwest. The groups identified needs...

Creator:: Hann, David W. and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Summaries from 49 published articles on tree volume and taper equations are presented for 39 tree species found in California, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, southeast Alaska, Idaho, and western Montana. The summaries are organized by species and then by type of equation (volume or taper). Each summary describes the types...

Creator:: Hann, David W. and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Summaries from 49 published articles on site-index and dominant-height growth curves and equations are presented for 20 tree species or species groups found in California, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, southeastern Alaska, Idaho, and western Montana. The summaries are organized by species. Each summary describes the modeling approach, type of curves/equations,...

Creator:: Niemiec, Stanley S. and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: This publication brings together in one place information on the general characteristics, biology and management, harvesting and utilization, wood characteristics, and related literature of Pacific Northwest hardwoods. Species included are bigleaf maple, black cottonwood, California black oak, California-laurel, giant chinkapin, Oregon ash, Oregon white oak, Pacific madrone, red alder, and...

Creator:: Garman, Steven L. (Steven Lee), 1955-, Acker, Steven A., Ohmann, Janet L., Spies, Thomas A. (Thomas Allen), and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Equations for predicting height from diameter outside bark at breast height (DBH) were generated for 24 tree species in western Oregon. The equations were based on the asymptotic Chapman-Richards function. Because geographic location and site productivity may influence height-diameter relationships, height-diameter measures from 8727 plots were first grouped by site...
