  • Douglas-fir hydraulic architecture and relationships among xylem properties at multiple scales via a Bayesian analysis

    Creator:
    Dunham, Sonya M.
    Abstract:
    This study investigated variation in xylem anatomy, hydraulic properties, and the relationship between anatomy and properties within Douglas-fir trees at multiple scales. The hierarchical scales in the study included fertilization treatments (fertilized and unfertilized), trees within the treatments, and positions within the trees. Tracheid diameter, tracheid length, percent latewood, number...

  • Variation in adaptive traits of coastal Douglas-fir : genetic and environmental components

    Creator:
    Balduman, Lisa M.
    Abstract:
    Cold hardiness and phenology are important adaptive traits for perennial plant species in temperate climates. Timing of growth, dormancy, and associated cold acclimation and deacclimation represents a delicate balance between maximizing growth under favorable conditions and minimizing frost damage under unfavorable conditions. Geographic patterns of genetic variation in adaptive traits,...

  • Soil surface effects on soil water, soil temperature, and Douglas-fir seedling injury following radiation frost damage events

    Creator:
    Melton, Lisa L.
    Abstract:
    A microclimatology study was conducted on a high elevation clearcut near the summit of Mt. Ashland in southwest Oregon to evaluate the effects of frost on Douglas-fir seedling growth and survival. Frost and low temperatures cause seedling stress through frost damage, frost desiccation, increased root resistance, and decreased rates of...

  • A comparison of subregional lumber, plywood and log markets in the Douglas-fir region

    Creator:
    Haven, Lisa
    Abstract:
    Subregional log market differences are defined and analyzed. Seven demand and seven supply centers are initially specified. Log demand factors inspected are mill capacity, processed wood species, cost and profitability conditions distinguished by product and subregion. They are preliminarily linked to a regional market model through product price transmission. An...

  • Assessing Mechanisms of Douglas-fir Growth Response to Operational Nitrogen Fertilization in Western Oregon

    Creator:
    Putney, Jacob D.
    Abstract:
    Nitrogen (N) fertilizer is a commonly applied silvicultural treatment in intensively managed Douglas-fir [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco] plantations. When attempting to maximize average growth responses through fertilization, landowners experience difficulty prioritizing stands for treatment based on the likely magnitude of response and return on the operational investment. Field trials were...
