Abstract:: The objectives of this investigation were to measure the seasonal and diurnal variations of starch as well as to relate these variations to growth of the trees. This study also microscopically examined the needles to determine if starch exists in granular form in Douglas-fir. The objectives were designed to gain...

Abstract:: This study characterized the nature and dynamics of interference in mixed red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.)/Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [Mirb.] Franco) stands in the Pacific Northwest, USA. Long-term spatial and tree measurements from the Cascade Head (CH) and H.J. Andrews (HJA) Experimental Forests in western Oregon and Delezene Creek (DC), Washington...

Abstract:: Salal is plant species that is native to forestland throughout the PNW and northern California that has been identified as a competitor to early crop tree development. This study consisted of a field and a radioisotope laboratory study to test four commonly used herbicides on salal (imazapyr, triclopyr, glyphosate, and...

Creator:: Janisch, Jack E.
Abstract:: As concern over global warming intensifies, sequestration and storage of atmospheric CO2 has become an important scientific and policy issue. Confusion persists, however, over interpretation of forest carbon (C) source-sink dynamics, in part because conclusions drawn depend on temporal and spatial scales of analysis (e.g. day-week scale vs. successional-scale), type...

Creator:: Merschel, Andrew G.
Abstract:: The structure and composition of mixed-conifer forest (MCF) in central Oregon has been altered by fire exclusion and logging. The resulting increased density, spatial contagion, and loss of fire resistant trees decrease the resiliency of this ecosystem to fire, drought, and insects. The historical and current composition and structure of...
