Creator:: Jacobs, Katherine M.
Abstract:: The Demonstration of Ecosystem Management Options (DEMO) study is a large-scale, multi-year, interdisciplinary project examining the effects of various levels and patterns of green-tree retention on multiple forest features. Six retention levels and patterns were examined and replicated across six blocks of predominately Douglas-fir forested land in western Oregon and...

Creator:: Dinger, Eric
Abstract:: Early in the establishment of Pacific Northwest conifer plantations, herbaceous weeds often decrease seedling growth through competition for soil moisture during the dry summer months. Critical period studies have reported that reductions in competitive weed cover are necessary during the initial years of establishment to avoid reductions in seedling growth....

Creator:: Meehan, Nathan Andrew
Abstract:: Growing societal demand for forest products is pressuring managers to increase productivity from a finite land area, and it is expected that increased supply will come mostly from expansion of intensively managed stands. The USDA Forest Service and numerous collaborators created the Long-Term Soil Productivity (LTSP) network of research sites...
