A broad definition of forestry would include the study of trees, forests, and the habitat they provide as well as their use by people. Modern, "science-based" forestry began in the nineteenth century when Europeans looked for specialists who could address questions on wood supply and extraction both at home and...
The objective of this research was to develop a one-third scale model of full-size
(prototype) metal-plate-connected (MPC) wood truss joints using similitude theory. The
prototype metal connector plates in MPC joints were modeled using thin galvanized sheet
metal and short staples. Truss grade wood material was ripped to one-third scale...

Modern, "science-based" forestry began in the nineteenth century when Europeans looked for specialists who could address questions on wood supply and extraction both at home and in their colonies. The threat of...
A broad definition of forestry would be the study of trees, forests, and their use by people. Modern science-based forestry is thought to have begun in the nineteenth century when Europeans looked to specialists to address questions of wood supply and extraction both in their forests at home and in...

In 1988 the Tualatin River was designated 'water quality limited' by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality. Three sources of pollution: urban point source, forestry non-point source and agricultural non-point source pollution were considered to contribute unacceptable levels of nutrients (phosphates and ammonium nitrates) to the river. Since a significant...
The practice of modern silviculture on U.S. public lands has been stymied by a legacy of litigation and policy changes since the late 20th century. Forestry in the 1980s was focused on physical science strategies and failed to consider the social complexities of multi-use forest management. Emblematic of the challenges...
This report deals with forestry in Korea in its various aspects and what has been done about forestry problems in Korea.
The ratio of forest land to total area of country is so high
that it is sometimes compared to Finland's, but the similarity with Finland stops there.
The adverse...

7th Biennial Conference on University Education in Natural Resources. In 2005 faculty in the Northern Arizona University School of Forestry initiated a project to replace the required sophomore-level writing course taught by the English Department with a new course, “Writing in Forestry,” taught within the School. The goal of the...
This project covers the construction of a Stereo Camera System, integration with a Velodyne VLP-16 LIDAR and the creation of dataset intended to aid in the development of vision algorithms for forestry applications. This project is the first step in a future multi-stage project to implement computer vision systems for...

Although science is widely accepted as a fundamental source of information underlying decisions about forest management and conservation, considerably less attention has been paid to the inevitable role that normative values and beliefs play in such decisions. This thesis highlights the normative dimensions of "ecological forestry," a strategy of forest...
This publication furnishes information that should be useful to 4-H Club leaders and members and other young people. It is intended to supplement subjectmatter material published by the various States and other agencies. The text emphasizes getting acquainted with forest trees and forest stands and learning their different values to...
In February of 1975, the School of Forestry sponsored a series of lectures and discussions on the topic, "Forests of the World-Future Resources Conflicts." The objectives of these presentations were to examine prospects for future forest use, the demands that will be made on forest resources of all sorts, the...
The purpose of this study is twofold: first, the construction of a major framework outlining a functional curriculum in professional forestry and, second, the suggesting of a method of procedure that will enable a staff in any forestry school to develop a functional curriculum adapted to local needs. No attempt...
The theme for the 1989 Starker Lectures concerned uncertainty surrounding forests and forestry in Oregon and the Pacific Northwest. It was a timely theme.
Indeed, the uncertainties concerning trade-offs among commodity production
and environment and the allocation of forest land, especially public lands, loom large as we enter the decade...

This thesis combines elements of forestry, interpersonal communication, and rhetoric to describe where residents of Coos Bay and North Bend Oregon obtain information about forests and forest uses, and how they view the credibility of that information. As a qualitative exploratory study, grounded theory methodology was used to develop theme...
