Abstract:: Remote sensing technologies have proven useful and cost-efficient for quantifying various forest vegetation characteristics over multiple scales. However, significant limitations were encountered in each of two related experiments conducted to explore their potential to supplement or replace traditional, single-species biomass equations for estimation of ground vegetation and tree overstory on...

Abstract:: It doesn’t come easy! Does any of your woodland property look like the alder stand at the left? If your goal is to convert this kind of ground to a productive conifer forest, you should know it can be a challenging task. You’ll have to do something with all that...

Creator:: Mason, Richard R., Wickman, B. E., Paul, H. G., and Torgersen, T. R.
Abstract:: Mixed-conifer stands of grand fir (Abies grandis (Dougl. ex D. Don) Lindl., Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. glauca (Beissn.) Franco), and ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Dougl. ex Laws.) were fertilized with nitrogen and combination treatments of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and sulfur to test their effects on trees and associated insects during...

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...

Creator:: Zenner, Eric K.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to assess how growth of young to mature Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) and western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla (Raf.) Sar.) in mixed stands was influenced by the presence of residual trees. Fourteen paired plots with and without residual trees were examined in a retrospective...

Abstract:: This annotated bibliography was compiled to provide a comprehensive list of sources on the ecological factors that affect forest regeneration. Abstracts from 494 publications are indexed by author, species, and subject, and are arranged into 4 major sections. Topics include the effects of biotic factors, abiotic factors, and stand and...

Creator:: Prueitt, Sara C.
Abstract:: Infestations of the western pine shoot borer (Eucosma sonomana Kearfott) in young stands of ponderosa pine (Pinusponderosa Lawson), were surveyed on the Deschutes National Forest. Elevation, slope, aspect, tree height, tree diameter, number of shoots in the terminal whorl, stand density, stand age and plant association for each stand were...
