Mapping and imputing potential productivity of Pacific Northwest forests using climate variables

Creator:: Latta, Gregory, Temesgen, Hailemariam, and Barrett, Tara M.
Abstract:: Regional estimation of potential forest productivity is important to diverse applications, including biofuels supply, carbon sequestration, and projections of forest growth. Using PRISM (Parameter-elevation Regressions on Independent Slopes Model) climate and productivity data measured on a grid of 3356 Forest Inventory and Analysis plots in Oregon and Washington, we evaluated...

An econometric analysis of output supply and input demand in the Canadian softwood lumber industry

Creator:: Latta, Gregory S. and Adams, Darius M.
Abstract:: Few studies have examined the own-price elasticity of Canadian softwood lumber supply or output-adjusted factor demand elasticities over the past two decades, despite the utility of these measures in understanding producer response to tariffs, to market shifts (such as the decline in U.S. public harvest), and to changes in domestic...

Private timber harvest potential in Eastern Oregon

Creator:: Adams, Darius Mainard, 1944-, Latta, Gregory S., and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Growing stock inventory on industrial and nonindustrial private forest (NIPF) lands in eastern Oregon has declined over the past 20 yr, as harvesting and mortality losses to insects and disease have outpaced growth. Over the same time period, harvest rates on private lands have varied, with no distinct trend to...

Timber harvest projections for private land in western Oregon

Creator:: Adams, Darius Mainard, 1944-, Schillinger, Randall R., Latta, Gregory S., Van Nalts, Adrienne, and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: In this analysis, volume-flow and market-based models of the western Oregon timber sector are developed. The volume-flow model finds the maximum, long-term, even-flow level of cut for each ownership (industry and non-industrial private forest). The market model simulates the interaction of log demand and timber owner supply to find the...

The effects of mechanical damage on residual coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [Mirbel] Franco) following commercial thinning

Creator:: Kiser, James D.
Abstract:: Commercial thinning operations can result in damage to residual stems. A literature review revealed that little was known about the effects of residual logging wounds with regard to rotation-age commercial conifers, particularly Douglas-fir. An experiment to examine fungal colonization of Douglas-fir following logging damage showed that while damage was significant...

The Pacific Northwest Regional Gap Analysis Project Final Report on Land Cover Mapping Methods MRLC Mapzones 2 and 7

Creator:: Grossmann, Emilie B., Kagan, James S., Ohmann, Janet L., May, Heather, Gregory, Matthew Jay, Tobalske, Claudine, and Institute for Natural Resources
Abstract:: This chapter is divided into three main sections. The first section discusses land cover map development. It begins by providing background information on the regional division of labor and the regional land cover legend. It then focuses on our land cover mapping methods, including a description of data sources, the...

The economics of carbon sequestration in western Oregon forests

Creator:: Im, Eun Ho
Abstract:: This study considered regional forest policies for sequestering carbon in existing forests in western Oregon. A model of log markets in western Oregon was employed to examine the impacts of forest policy changes on future carbon stock, harvests, and management activities. A carbon tax program, as a mitigation option for...

Imputing Mean Annual Change to Estimate Current Forest Attributes

Creator:: Eskelson, Bianca N.I., Barrett, Tara M., and Temesgen, Hailemariam
Abstract:: When a temporal trend in forest conditions is present, standard estimates from paneled forest inventories can be biased. Thus methods that use more recent remote sensing data to improve estimates are desired. Paneled inventory data from national forests in Oregon and Washington, U.S.A., were used to explore three nearest neighbor...

Population genetics, ecology and evolution of a vertebrate metacommunity

Creator:: Manier, Mollie Kim
Abstract:: Population genetic structure is widespread in many organisms and can be found at small spatial scales. Fine-scale differentiation is the result of ecological and evolutionary processes working together to produce an overall pattern, but the relative importance of these factors in population differentiation is poorly understood. The goals of my...

The roles of nearest neighbor methods in imputing missing data in forest inventory and monitoring databases

Creator:: Eskelson, Bianca N.I., Temesgen, Hailemariam, Lemay, Valerie, Barrett, Tara M., Crookston, Nicholas L., and Hudak, Andrew T.
Abstract:: Almost universally, forest inventory and monitoring databases are incomplete, ranging from missing data for only a few records and a few variables, common for small land areas, to missing data for many observations and many variables, common for large land areas. For a wide variety of applications, nearest neighbor (NN)...
