This study evaluated the effects of partial cutting on stand structure and growth,
patterns of conifer regeneration, stand mortality and disease, and understory plant diversity
and abundance. Seventy-three 1/5 ha plots were established in 18 partially cut stands
throughout southeast Alaska. These stands were partially cut 12 to 96 years...
Information reviewed and reaffirmed, 1962. Original report published in 1943. This report is one of a series issued in cooperation with the Army-Navy-Civil Committee on Aircraft Design Criteria under the supervision of the Aeronautical Board.
The objectives of this study were to determine the species composition and density of natural conifer regeneration following selective logging in southeast Alaska.
Therefore, we quantified the density and size of new cohort spruce and hemlock and current seedling bank in 17 selectively logged stands. All stands were in mixed...
