Baseline data for the first year of a two-year study to assess
the current status of ponderosa pine stands in southeastern
Montana relative to coal-fired electric power development are
presented. Sixteen permanent plots in pine stands were established
in eastern Montana, South Dakota, and Wyoming. Several characteristics
believed to be...
The dynamics of stands In old-growth ponderosa pine (Pinus
ponderosa) forests on the eastern flank of the central Oregon
Cascades are Investigated. Age structure and spatial pattern of
ponderosa pine within the Pringle Falls Experimental Forest
Research Natural Area coupled with the fire history of the area
aid In Interpreting...
Montane forest vegetation as it occurs on the east flank of the
central Oregon Cascades has provided excellent conditions for a
"natural experiment" in the use of various methodologies in studying
vegetational distribution. This "experiment" has reflected on some
theory and practice for the discipline of plant synecology. Detailed
descriptions,...
