Analysis of potential impacts of climate change on forests of the United States Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Latta, Gregory, Temesgen, Hailemariam, Adams, Darius M., and Barrett, Tara
Abstract:: As global climate changes over the next century, forest productivity is expected to change as well. Using PRISM climate and productivity data measured on a grid of 3356 plots, we developed a simultaneous autoregressive (SAR) model to estimate the impacts of climate change on potential productivity of Pacific Northwest (PNW)...

Resilience in Quaking Aspen: Recent advances and future needs

Creator:: Rogers, Paul C., Eisenberg, Cristina, and St. Clair, Samuel B.
Abstract:: Quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides) sustainability is a topic of intense interest in forest ecology. Reports range from declines to persisting or increasing coverage in some areas. Moreover, there is little agreement on ultimate factors driving changes. Low aspen recruitment has been attributed to climate patterns, past management, herbivore increases, competitive...

Forest disturbance across the conterminous United States from 1985-2012: The emerging dominance of forest decline

Creator:: Cohen, Warren B., Yang, Zhiqiang, Stehman, Stephen V., Schroeder, Todd A., Bell, David M., Masek, Jeffrey G., Huang, Chengquan, and Meigs, Garrett W.
Abstract:: Evidence of shifting dominance among major forest disturbance agent classes regionally to globally has been emerging in the literature. For example, climate-related stress and secondary stressors on forests (e.g., insect and disease, fire) have dramatically increased since the turn of the century globally, while harvest rates in the western US...

Decadal Trends in Net Ecosystem Production and Net Ecosystem Carbon Balance for a Regional Socioecological System

Creator:: Turner, David P., Ritts, William D., Yang, Zhiqiang, Kennedy, Robert E., Cohen, Warren B., Duane, Maureen V., Thornton, Peter E., and Law, Beverly E.
Abstract:: Carbon sequestration is increasingly recognized as an ecosystem service, and forest management has a large potential to alter regional carbon fluxes − notably by way of harvest removals and related impacts on net ecosystem production (NEP). In the Pacific Northwest region of the U.S., the implementation of the Northwest Forest...

Influence of Bravo fungicide applications on wood density and moisture content of Swiss needle cast affected Douglas-fir trees

Creator:: Johnson, G. R., Gartner, Barbara L., Maguire, Doug, and Kanaskied, Alan
Abstract:: Wood density, moisture content, tracheid width and cell wall size were examined in trees from plots that were sprayed for 5 years with chlorothalonil (Bravo®) fungicide to reduce the impact of Swiss needle cast (SNC) and from trees in adjacent unsprayed plots. The unsprayed (more heavily diseased) trees had significantly...

Modeling the effects of forest management on in situ and ex situ longleaf pine forest carbon stocks

Creator:: Gonzalez-Benecke, C. A., Samuelson, L. J., Martin, T. A., Cropper, W. P., Jr., Johnsen, K. H., Stokes, T. A., Butnor, J. R., and Anderson, P. H.
Abstract:: Assessment of forest carbon storage dynamics requires a variety of techniques including simulation models. We developed a hybrid model to assess the effects of silvicultural management systems on carbon (C) budgets in longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.) plantations in the southeastern U.S. To simulate in situ C pools, the model...

Complex restoration challenges: Weeds, seeds, and roads in a forested Wildland Urban Interface

Creator:: Buonopane, Michelle, Snider, Gabrielle, Kerns, Becky K., and Doescher, Paul S.
Abstract:: Federal policies in the US strongly emphasize reducing hazardous fuels at the Wildland Urban Interface (WUI). However, these areas present restoration challenges as they often have exotic weeds, frequent human disturbance, and the presence of roads. Understanding seed banks is important in planning for desirable post-disturbance community conditions, developing integrated...

Trait-based approaches to linking vegetation and food webs in early-seral forests of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Campbell, John L. and Donato, Daniel C.
Abstract:: Both the structure and composition of naturally generated early-seral forests in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) can be profoundly different than that of more developed forest seres, especially in the period after a major disturbance but before conifers re-develop a closed canopy. While it is reasonable to suggest that the unique...

Carbon balance on federal forest lands of Western Oregon and Washington: The impact of the Northwest Forest Plan

Creator:: Krankina, Olga N., Harmon, Mark E., Schnekenburger, Frank, and Sierra, Carlos A.
Abstract:: The management of federal forest lands in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) region changed in early 1990s when the Northwest Forest Plan (NWFP) was adopted with the primary goal to protect old-growth forest and associated species. A major decline in timber harvest followed, extending an earlier downward trend. The historic and...

Wolf, Elk, and Aspen Food Web Relationships: Context and Complexity

Creator:: Eisenberg, Cristina, Seager, S. Trent, and Hibbs, David E.
Abstract:: Like most ecological communities, aspen (Populus tremuloides) forests are influenced by a synergy of bottom-up (resources-driven) and top-down (predator-driven) processes. Since the 1920s, ecologists have observed the decline of many aspen communities throughout the Intermountain West. The extent and possible drivers of this decline are topics of much recent scientific...
