Effects of econometric and activity analysis derived supply curves on Canadian sawmilling industry market forecasts

Creator:: Latta, Gregory S.
Abstract:: This study utilizes the Timber Assessment Market Model (TAMM) to examine the differences in Canadian softwood lumber market forecasts arising from econometric versus activity analysis supply curves. A restricted profit function approach is applied to three lumber producing regions using the most recent data available on costs, prices, and output...

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...

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)...

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...

Evaluating land-use and private forest management responses to a potential forest carbon offset sales program in western Oregon (USA)

Creator:: Latta, Gregory S., Adams, Darius M., Bell, Kathleen P., and Kline, Jeffrey D.
Abstract:: We describe the use of linked land-use and forest sector models to simulate the effects of carbon offset sales on private forest owners' land-use and forest management decisions in western Oregon (USA). Our work focuses on forest management decisions rather than afforestation, allows full forest sector price adjustment to land-use...

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 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...

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...

Small-Area Estimation of County-Level Forest Attributes Using Ground Data and Remote Sensed Auxiliary Information

Creator:: Goerndt, Michael E., Monleon, Vicente J., and Temesgen, Hailemariam
Abstract:: Small-area estimation (SAE) is a concept that has considerable potential for precise estimation of forest ecosystem attributes in partitioned forest populations. In this study, several estimators were compared as SAE techniques for 12 counties in the northern Oregon Coast range. The estimators that were compared consisted of three indirect estimators,...
