This investigation was undertaken to characterize and evaluate
the forage production and utilization of the successional vegetation
of the mixed conifer forest.
Field studies were carried out during the summers of 1962
through 1964 at the Eastern Oregon Experiment Station Hall Ranch
which is located 12 miles southeast of Union,...
Fire has played a prominent role in the development and character of the ponderosa pine forests in western North American. Its
records are written in the scars of trees that have survived the fire.
Careful studies of these fire-scars may be used as a means of reconstructing
the fire history...

Forest associations, secondary succession, and relationships
of plant communities to Roosevelt elk were investigated. Stratification
of vegetation into ecological units and an understanding of secondary
succession by habitat-type were a necessary first step in investigations
into browsing of conifers by elk. The study was jointly conducted
by the Oregon State...
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of clearcut logging on stormflow by analysis of characteristic parameters of individual storm hydrographs. Parameters considered included height-of-rise, peak discharge, volume and time-to-peak. The hydrologic data were derived from experimental watersheds of the Alsea Study located in the Oregon Coast...
Goals in 1972 included characterization of the soils of the
Oregon IBP reference stands, development of information on the soils
throughout the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest, and evaluation
of nutrient provision to the major kinds of soils. Field reconnaissance,
soil morphology studies, and sampling were carried out.
Lab analyses...
