Stem mapping of all trees greater than 15 cm dbh has
been completed on the 10.24 hectare watershed (No. 10) at H. J.
Andrews intensive study site. Using a 25 m grid system, mapping
of vegetation into 7 plant communities and then into 4 habitat
types has also been completed....
Early in the planning of the Coniferous Biome program It was recognized that experimental watersheds 2 and 3 in the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest might provide ideal study sites for certain phases of the Biome
program. A study was funded during year 1 (1970) to provide necessary background ecological...
Early in the planning of the Coniferous Biome research program, it was recognized that Experimental Watersheds 6, 7, and 8 in the
H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest might provide ideal study sites for certain phases of the Biome program. A study was funded during year 1 (1970) to provide necessary...
Variation in nutrient content of forest trees is discussed using the
data from literature plus data collected by the authors. Sections are
included on sampling and methods of expression of nutrient content. The
emphasis is on possible causes of variation, which involves nutrient
variation between years, within the year, and...
Measurement of plant moisture stress of 1-2 m understory conifers
was made in "reference stands" on the H. J. Andrews Experimental
Forest in 1970-1972. Maximum stress each year (measured between midnight
and dawn) is closely correlated with the position of each community
along one axis of an ordination of the...
Air temperatures at i m and soil temperatures at 2C cm are reported for
twenty-one forest stands in the central Western Cascader of Oregon. Records
began in 1970 for some stands, in 1971 or 1972 for most. Temperature Growth
Index for a stand, based on temperature effects on Douglas-fir seedling...
The objective of this study is to develop a mathematical model to relate the production of juvenile sockeye salmon in the Wood River
Lake system to parent stock size, primary and secondary production, population size of predators and competitors, and abiotic variables.
"We have developed graphical and logical models for explaining the production of a consumer on the basis of the capacity of an ecosystem to produce that consumer (the productivity of the system for that consumer), on the basis of the biomass of the consumer, and on the basis of the...
