Growing stock assessment and growth prediction system for managed hill dipterocarp forest of Peninsular Malaysia

Creator:: Kassim, Abd. Rahman
Abstract:: The silviculture of mixed dipterocarp forests of Peninsular Malaysia can potentially be improved by developing quantitative tools and guidelines for this forest type. This thesis addresses three key objectives; 1) to test the hypothesis that a maximum size-density relationship can be identified in hill dipterocarp forests of Peninsular Malaysia, 2)...

A biological classification and characterization of structure in managed, mixed-species, multi-aged stands

Creator:: Singleton, Ryan B.
Abstract:: Forest management requires classification of forest stands into groupings or types based on structural similarities, even when structure varies continuously along gradients. Managed, mixed-species, multi-aged forest stands often display complex structures containing extreme variation in trees size, density, and species composition, and as a result have diverse canopy structures. A...

Twenty-five-year response of Larix occidentalis stem form to five stand density regimes in the Blue Mountains of eastern Oregon

Creator:: Lennette, Andrew P.
Abstract:: Upper-stem diameter measurements from a levels-of-growing-stock study on Larix occidentalis in the Blue Mountains of eastern Oregon were collected over a 25 year period with an optical dendrometer. The following hypotheses were tested with these data: 1) stand density regime has a significant effect on stem form; and 2) crown...

Alterations in Douglas-fir crown structure, morphology, and dynamics imposed by the Swiss needle cast disease in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Weiskittel, Aaron R.
Abstract:: Plants respond to defoliation in many different and complex ways, depending on their growth habit and form as well as the extent and duration of the defoliation. Tree crowns have been shown to be quite sensitive to disturbances such as defoliation, however quantitative relationships have rarely been developed, making the...

Growth analysis of heterogeneous stands of ponderosa pine and lodgepole pine in central Oregon

Creator:: Mainwaring, Douglas B.
Abstract:: Basal area and height growth were analyzed for individual trees in uneven-aged ponderosa and lodgepole pine stands in central Oregon. Basal area growth was modeled as a function of other stand and tree variables to address five general objectives: 1) to compare the predictive ability of distance-dependent versus distance-independent stand...

Mechanical behavior of coniferous trees subjected to wind loading

Creator:: Moore, John R.
Abstract:: The behavior of coniferous trees subjected to wind loading was investigated through a series of experiments and also through simulation modeling. Previous studies that measured the natural oscillation frequencies and damping ratios were reviewed and equations were developed for predicting the natural frequency of a tree from the ratio of...

Syntheses and structures of new inorganic borates

Creator:: Sun, Hongxing
Abstract:: Several new solid-state inorganic borates have been prepared and characterized. Single crystals of the simple orthoborate ScB0₃ were grown and its structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray methods. The new borates Li₃Sc(B0₃)₂, LaSc₃(B0₃)₄, NdSc₃(B0₃)₄, SrNaB0₃, and Li4Ln4MB90₂₃ (Ln = Y, Er, and Gd; M = Al and Ga) were identified...
