Dwarf Mistletoe-host interactions in mixed-conifer forests in the Sierra Nevada

Creator:: Maloney, Patricia E. and Rizzo, David M.
Abstract:: We determined the spatial pattern of dwarf mistletoe (Arceuthobium spp.) associated with two different conifer hosts, white fir (Abies concolor) and Jeffrey pine (Pinus jeffreyi), in forests around the Lake Tahoe Basin and at the Teakettle Experimental Forest, both located in the Sierra Nevada. We also examined a number of...

Pathogens and insects in a pristine forest ecosystem: the Sierra San Pedro Martir, Baja, Mexico

Creator:: Maloney, Patricia E. and Rizzo, David M.
Abstract:: We determined the incidence of pathogens and insects across mixed-conifer stands in the Sierra San Pedro Martir (SSPM) of northern Baja, Mexico, to assess the role of pests in a pristine forest ecosystem. We also determined the spatial distribution of the two most common pests, mistletoe, Phoradendron pauciflorum Torrey, and...

Enlargement of canopy gaps associated with a fungal pathogen in Yosemite Valley, California

Creator:: Rizzo, D. M., Slaughter, G. W., and Parmeter, J. R.
Abstract:: The enlargement of 21 canopy gaps associated with the root pathogen Heterobasidion annosum (Fr.:Fr.) Bref. (; Fomes annosus (Fr.) Karst.) in the mixed-conifer forest of Yosemite Valley was monitored between 1971 and 1998. Mean expanded gap area was 232 m2 (range 38–802 m2) in 1971 and 1455 m2 (range 150–4216...

Initial study of kiln drying clear Douglas fir planks

Creator:: Stillwell, H. D. and Oregon Forest Products Laboratory
Abstract:: Checking was influenced b drying conditions. This influence was greatest before average moisture content reached 20 per cent, but tension in surface layers caused checking even below this point. Neither high initial dry-bulb temperature nor initial conditions of high equilibrium moisture content were conducive to checking. High temperature and high...

Shrinkage of Douglas fir, western hemlock, and red alder as affected by drying conditions

Creator:: Espenas, Leif D., Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory, and Oregon State University. School of Forestry
Abstract:: Moisture content and shrinkage were determined on specimens equilibrated at two conditions for equilibrium moisture content (EMC) at room temperature after the specimens had been dried under a variety of constant temperatures with constant EMC's. Moisture content at room temperature equilibrium was less for specimens dried at high temperature than...

Forced-air drying of lumber in Western Oregon

Creator:: Kozlik, Charles J. and Oregon Forest Research Center
Abstract:: Forced-air drying of lumber is economically feasible as an aid to sawmills without dry kilns. Reduced cost of shipping more than offsets cost of drying with forced circulation of air. Investment in equipment is small. In the Willamette Valley, forced-air drying probably can be accomplished successfully throughout the year. High...

Effect of kiln conditions on the strength of Douglas fir and western hemlock

Creator:: Kozlik, Charles J. and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: To test the effects of kiln-drying on strength properties of Douglas fir and western hemlock, temperatures to 230 F, conditions for equilibrium moisture contents of 6 percent and 12 percent, and prolonged heating were investigated. Prolonged heating and choice of conditions for 6 percent or 12 percent equilibrium moisture content...

Seasoning and machining degrade in young-growth Douglas-fir dimension lumber

Creator:: Anderson, B. G., Knauss, A. C., Frashour, R. G., and Oregon Forest Products Laboratory
Abstract:: The increasing volume of young-growth Douglas-fir timber cut in the Pacific Northwest emphasizes the need for more knowledge on the characteristics of lumber sawed from these trees. The study described here was initiated to learn the extent arid causes of degrade resulting from kiln-drying young-growth Douglas-fir dimension lumber. At the...
