Natural regeneration of Douglas-fir in uneven-aged stands in southwest Oregon

Creator:: Gerstein, Jared M.
Abstract:: The response to various levels of stand density by natural Douglas-fir regeneration, shrub and sprouting hardwood species was studied in the mixed-evergreen-forests of southwest Oregon. Partial-cut old growth (harvested 22-31 years prior) and thinned evenaged (harvested 9-17 years prior) stand types were used as surrogates for intentionally managed uneven-aged stand...
