Hydrophobicity of Cindery Typic Cryorthents

Creator:: Evans, Lynn B.
Abstract:: The hydrophobicity of soils of the Deschutes National Forest was studied. The soils are Cindery Typic Cryorthents, formed in cinders and ash from Mt. Mazama. Ponderosa pine is the dominant overstory vegetation. Of particular interest was the effect of prescribed burning on hydrophobicity. Fire has been shown to cause a...

Public perceptions of smoke from wildfire, prescribed fire, and fire use

Creator:: Frederick, Stacey Sargent
Abstract:: Managers and policy-makers across broad disciplines and organizations are calling for a better understanding of public opinion on natural resource issues. One such issue is that of fire and its role in the management of our forests and rangelands. Public perceptions of fuel reduction techniques, with a particular emphasis on...

An evaluation of expected private losses from selected public policies for reducing open field burning, Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Conklin, Frank S., Bradshaw, R. Carlyle, and Oregon State University. Agricultural Experiment Station
Abstract:: This document is one of a series of research reports prepared by Oregon State University during the 197Os which focuses on the field burning problem of Oregon's Willamette Valley. The purpose of such research efforts is to assist both the private and public sectors of Oregon in identifying technically feasible,...

Silvicultural and financial analysis of three case studies in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Rudd, Christopher Channing
Abstract:: Three data sets were examined to determine the costs with and without constrained forest management practices. Two adjacent sites in the Coast Range of Oregon were studied. One of the units was broadcast burned while the adjacent site was left unburned. The stands were projected for growth and yield in...

Synthesis of knowledge on the effects of fire and thinning treatments on understory vegetation in U.S. dry forests

Creator:: Oregon State University. Agricultural Experiment Station, Bartuszevige, Anne M., and Kennedy, Patricia L.
Abstract:: "... One goal of this document is to synthesize the literature on the effects of mechanical thinning on understory plant species. A second goal is to document the effect of prescribed burning on rare, threatened, or endangered species. We review current literature on studies that address effects of prescribed fire...

Thinning with prescribed fire and timber harvesting mechanization for fuels reduction and forest restoration

Creator:: Matzka, Peter J.
Abstract:: In the Blue Mountains of northeastern Oregon, prescribed fire and mechanical harvesting economics were investigated for fuels reduction and forest restoration. Using a cut-to-length harvesting system, three single-grip harvesters and three forwarders produced significantly different production rates. For the harvesters, significant variables that affected production rates were found to be:...
