Creator:: Chamberlain, Howard Emil
Abstract:: The study of highlead logging operations through the use of statistical models is investigated, and their potential use for estimating and control of operations examined. During the preliminary phases of the study 16 work elements and 26 influencing variables are identified and measurement criteria developed for each. A coding system...

An econometric analysis of timber demand and supply relationships on the Siuslaw National Forest

Creator:: Shih, Kung
Abstract:: To abstract the fundamental market structures of stumpage sold from the Siuslaw National Forest, a three-equation structural model with different assumptions on private cut was empirically derived. Under the private cut price-fixed assumption, the structural model can be simplified as a single-equation model with stumpage price as dependent variable and...

Stand level silvicultural optimization utilizing a late-seral index constraint

Creator:: Semeliss, Wade Alan
Abstract:: A dynamic programming algorithm (MS PATH) was used to develop a stand level optimization model, FPS Optimizer. The model incorporates a late-seral constraint on the profit maximizing objective function utilizing a four-descriptor structural index as a proxy. This index, the 'Old-Growth Index', rates the late-seral structural quality of a given...

Economies of scale in sawmilling in British Columbia

Creator:: Dobie, Jas. (James)
Abstract:: The number of sawmills in the coastal lumber-producing area of British Columbia diminished from 364 In 1955 to 162 in 1968. In the interior of the province the reduction in plant numbers was from 2125 to 740. Over the same period lumber production in the province increased from 4.9 billion...
