The Application of Linear Programming for Forest Land Use and Timber Management Planning with Watershed Considerations in Terengganu, Peninsular Malaysia

Creator:: Mat Isa, Ahmad Zainal
Abstract:: The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the use of Linear Programming (LP) and other mathematical procedures to evaluate watershed and perpetuity constraints on forest land use for a selected scenario in Terengganu, Peninsular Malaysia. The paper describes the system of modelling and forecasting estimates of potential timber growth,...

FishXing: evaluation of fish passage culvert model and comparision with Oregon Department of Forestry's compliance with fish passage and peak flow requirements at stream crossings

Creator:: Morrissette, Brett A.
Abstract:: FishXing (fish crossing), a computer aided stream crossing culvert model designed to analyze fish passage through culverts was compared with results of an Oregon Department of Forestry fish passage monitoring report. FishXing was created at Humboldt State University through sponsorship from the US Forest Service, USDA, Stream Team, Six Rivers...

Preliminary planning of forest roads using ARC GRID

Creator:: Xu, Shenglin
Abstract:: Forest road planning is importaht in logging operations, because it can affect feasibility and cost of forest operations. Due to rapid advances in computer hardware, GIS software, and remote sensing techniques, computer forest road planning models using GIS are becoming practical. DEM data at 30 meter resolution are common and...

Aerial forest operations : mineral amendment project

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...

A method of selection of cable harvesting machines for Vermont

Creator:: Stirler, Dennis John
Abstract:: There is much interest in the State of Vermont in cable harvesting. Since there are no time studies available for cable harvesting with various machines in Vermont, it is necessary to arrive at production and cost levels by a different method. The method chosen for this paper is made up...

Production rates of skyline, balloon, and helicopter yarding systems from gross time study analysis

Creator:: Curtis, Richard James
Abstract:: This paper describes the analysis of data from a three-year gross time study of skyline, balloon, and helicopter yarding systems operating in Western Oregon. Data collection activities were designed and supervised by the Pacific Northwest Forest and Range Experiment Station, U.S.D.A. Forest Service. The specific logging systems studied were running...

Spatial and temporal runoff response to snowmelt, and the influence of geomorphology in a headwater catchment, central eastern Cascades, Washington

Creator:: Alley, David
Abstract:: This report presents a nested gauging study of streamflow variability from three sub-catchments (150-200 ha in area) of the Burns Creek catchment (565 ha) in the Entiat Experimental Forest of central Washington State. We test and reject the hypothesis that headwater catchments of this size are composed of physically and...

Soil compaction and disturbance following a thinning of second-growth Douglas-fir with a cut-to-length and a skyline system in the Oregon Cascades

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....

Road surface runoff for the Oak Creek watershed: the influence of hillslope and road characteristics

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...

SkidPC 2000: a mobility, production, and rut depth simulation program

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...
