Distribution of Live Biomass, Herbivory and Foliar Retention in Central Oregon Lodgepole Pine (Pinus contorta ssp. murrayana) Crowns

Creator:: Burke, Adam O.
Abstract:: Lodgepole pine (Pinus conorta) is a widely distributed forest type across western North America. Central Oregon lodgepole pine forests are ecologically unique when compared to other lodgepole pine ecosystems. Sierra lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta ssp. murrayana) is the dominant variety and often exists as the climax species on pumice soils,...

Fire ecology of ponderosa pine and the rebuilding of fire-resilient ponderosa pine ecosystems

Creator:: Fitzgerald, Stephen Arthur
Abstract:: The ponderosa pine ecosystem of the West have changed dramatically since Euro-American settlement 140 years ago due to past land uses and the curtailment of natural fire. Today, ponderosa pine forests contain over abundance of fuel, and stand densities have increased from a grange of 49-124 trees per ha (20-50...

Classification strategies for unbalanced binary maps : finding Ponderosa pine in the Willamette Valley

Creator:: Riddell, Audrey P.
Abstract:: Forest species classifications are becoming increasingly automated as advances are made in machine learning. The algorithms used to identify tree species range from simple decision trees to intricate neural networks, and often excel in accurately delineating tree species. However, complex algorithms can have high input costs, including the cost of...

Defensible Space Development: Exploring The Role of Arborists in Wildfire Risk Mitigation for Communities of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Pritchett, Sylvan
Abstract:: Every year in North America homes in the Wildland-Urban interface (WUI) are destroyed by wildfires. The creation of defensible space around homes in the WUI, through the management of vegetation can help mitigate some of the risk posed by fire. While many homeowners recognize the need for defensible space around...

Exotic Species Success in Fire- and Harvest-Disturbed Forest Sites in Southwest Oregon

Creator:: Pearce-Smith, Sarabeth
Abstract:: Invasive plant species are a significant concern in Oregon’s forests, particularly in early-seral sites. Early-seral forests are generated by severe disturbances such as fire or timber harvest, and persist until canopy closure. They are vulnerable to invasion because they have abundant resources, and are important because they provide unique resources....

Recovering Lost Ground : Effects of Soil Burn Intensity on Nutrients and Ectomycorrhiza Communities of Ponderosa Pine Seedlings

Creator:: Cowan, Ariel D.
Abstract:: Fuel accumulation and climate shifts are predicted to increase the frequency of high-severity fires in ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Dougl. ex Laws) forests of central Oregon. The combustion of fuels containing large downed wood can result in intense soil heating, alteration of soil properties, and mortality of microbes. Previous studies...

Elutriation from fluidized beds with immersed heat transfer tubes

Creator:: Colakyan, Manuk
Abstract:: Elutriation of silica sand particles from a 0.9 X 0.9 m cold fluidized bed was studied. Data were collected for cases with and without tubes. During experiments the position of the tube bundle above the distributor plate and the superficial velocity were varied. Runs were made at velocities of 0.9...

Effects of Thinning on Tradeoffs Between Drought Resistance, Drought Resilience, and Wood Production in mature Douglas-fir in Western Oregon

Creator:: Elfstrom, L. Madelene
Abstract:: Recent climate projections predict more frequent and severe drought conditions in western Oregon which is a threat to forest health, productivity, and structure. Land managers are increasingly concerned with how to create forest drought resistance: a tree or stand’s ability to maintain its growth rates during a drought, and resilience:...
