Amount and distribution of coarse woody debris in pine ecosystems of north-western Spain, Russia and the United States

Creator:: Herrero, Celia, Krankina, Olga, Monleon, Vicente J., and Bravo, Felipe
Abstract:: The quantity and characteristics of coarse woody debris (CWD) were examined in four distinct pine ecosystems of north-western (NW) Spain, NW Russia and the NW USA. The average CWD volume and biomass ranged from 3.76 m³ ha⁻¹, 1.55 Mg ha⁻¹ in pine plantations in NW Spain to 24.86 m3 ha⁻¹,...

Exploring biophysical linkages between coastal forestry management practices and aquatic bivalve contaminant exposure

Creator:: Scully-Engelmeyer, Kaegan, Granek, Elise F., Nielsen-Pincus, Max, Lanier, Andy, Rumrill, Steven S., Moran, Patrick, Nilsen, Elena, Hladik, Michelle L., and Pillsbury, Lori
Abstract:: Terrestrial land use activities present cross-ecosystem threats to riverine and marine species and processes. Specifically, pesticide runoff can disrupt hormonal, reproductive, and developmental processes in aquatic organisms, yet non-point source pollution is difficult to trace and quantify. In Oregon, U.S.A., state and federal forestry pesticide regulations, designed to meet regulatory...

Tree crown ratio models for multi-species and multi-layered stands of southeastern British Columbia

Creator:: Temesgen, Hailemariam, LeMay, Valerie, and Mitchell, Stephen J.
Abstract:: The ratio of live crown length to tree height (crown ratio; CR) is often used as an important predictor variable for tree level growth equations, particularly for multi-species and multi-layered stands. Also, CR indicates tree vigour and can be an important habitat variable. Measurement of CR for each tree can...

Potential impacts of climate change on soil erosion vulnerability across the conterminous United States

Creator:: Segura, C., Sun, G., McNulty, S., and Zhang, Y.
Abstract:: Rainfall runoff erosivity (R) is one key climate factor that controls water erosion. Quantifying the effects of climate change–induced erosivity change is important for identifying critical regions prone to soil erosion under a changing environment. In this study we first evaluate the changes of R from 1970 to 2090 across...

Sustainable Development and Green Buildings

Creator:: Sinha, Arijit, Gupta, Rakesh, and Kutnar, Andreja
Abstract:: Global sustainability goals have led to the development of the green building movement. The Green Building Program, stemming from the movement, has had unprecedented success as it provides a quantifi able metric to people’s efforts towards sustainable development. Sustainable development and green buildings are often used interchangeably. Although, sustainable development...

Oregon’s Forest Sector Innovation System: An Investigation Towards Advanced Performance

Creator:: Orozco, Nadine, Hansen, Eric, Knowles, Chris, and Leavengood, Scott
Abstract:: The forest products industry has faced numerous challenges in remaining innovative: outside forces such as industry culture and policy provide few incentives while poor communication among industry actors impedes creative growth from within. This article outlines results gathered from personal interviews with industry professionals and an industry survey on key...

Regeneration imputation models for complex stands of southeastern British Columbia

Creator:: Hassani, Badre T., LeMay, Valerie, Marshall, Peter L., Temesgen, Hailemariam, and Zumrawi, Abdel-Azim
Abstract:: Two imputation techniques for predicting natural regeneration in complex stands prevalent in southeastern British Columbia (BC) were compared using data from the Interior Cedar-Hemlock moist warm subzone variant 2 (ICHmw2) in the vicinity of Nelson, BC. Imputation approaches offer advantages over other modeling approaches in that they provide estimates of...

Relationship between tree growth and physical dimensions of Fagus sylvatica crowns assessed from terrestrial laser scanning

Creator:: Seidel, Dominik, Schall, Peter, Gille, Malte, and Ammer, Christian
Abstract:: Measurements of physical tree crown dimensions were of subjective character in the past, even though they can be considered important for the management of many silvicultural operations, such as timing of thinning operations. In our study we investigated if and how measures of physical crown dimensions of trees differed when...

Forestry professionals’ perspectives on exoskeletons (wearable assistive technology) to improve worker safety and health

Creator:: Kim, Jeong Ho and Chung, Woodam
Abstract:: Exoskeletons have been recognized as an effective ergonomic control to reduce physical risk factors, including forceful exertions and awkward postures that are common in manual timber felling. However, no evidence exists to date that offers industry perspectives, important facilitators, and potential barriers for adopting exoskeletons in the forest industry. Therefore,...
