Creator:: Ellingson, Kami S.
Abstract:: Understanding how forest roads interact with hillslope hydrology by intercepting and/or rerouting storm runoff will better enable land managers to reduce erosion related to forest roads. Watershed scale knowledge of how culvert runoff response varies across the landscape would provide valuable information to those individuals designing and maintaining forest road...

Creator:: Litton, Sabrina
Abstract:: This study examined the effects of timber harvest and subsoiling on soil physical properties considered important to forest productivity and hydrologic concerns. Ground based mechanical timber harvesting on some soil types can cause soil disturbance including compaction. These effects in turn can influence multiple important soil physical properties that affect...

Creator:: Spong, Ben D.
Abstract:: SkidPC 2000, written in Visual Basic Version 6.0, is an updated version of the 1987 DOS program that calculates the mobility and productivity of ground-based logging vehicles over a ground profile. As in the original program, the user enters the vehicle and operational conditions and the program will calculate the...

Creator:: Allen, Marganne Mary
Abstract:: Soil bulk density and disturbance were measured before and after a commercial thinning of 3 0-50 year-old Douglas-fir using a cut-to-length (CTL) and a skyline system on the Willamette National Forest in the Oregon Cascades. A dual-probe nuclear densimeter was used to measure bulk density at four and eight inches....

Creator:: Cornell, Jennie L.
Abstract:: A helicopter operations problem was studied for a private forest landowner testing an experimental application of minerals on Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesil) in the Coast Range of Oregon to offset growth reductions from Swiss needle cast disease. A planning approach was needed to minimize costs for transportation and aerial application of...
