Potential effects of climate change and fire management on fire behavior and vegetation patterns on an east Cascades landscape

Creator:: Greaves, Heather E.
Abstract:: Climate exerts considerable control on wildfire regimes, and climate and wildfire are both major drivers of forest growth and succession in interior Northwest forests. Estimating potential response of these landscapes to anticipated changes in climate helps researchers and land managers understand and mitigate impacts of climate change on important ecological...

Overstory composition and stand structure shifts within inter-mixed ponderosa pine and lodgepole pine stands of the south-central Oregon pumice zone

Creator:: Shuffield, Chaylon D.
Abstract:: Ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) and lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta var. murrayana) forests of south-central Oregon have been extensively researched over the last century. However, little information has been reported on overstory composition and stand structure shifts associated with fire exclusion within inter-mixed ponderosa pine and lodgepole pine stands of the...

Small mammal relationships with downed wood and antelope bitterbrush in ponderosa pine forests of central Oregon

Creator:: Smith, Troy G.
Abstract:: Downed wood and antelope bitterbrush (Purshia tridentata) are often managed on federal ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) forests in central Oregon to prevent catastrophic wildfires and provide wildlife habitat. However, although much is known regarding the roles of downed wood and bitterbrush in wildfire behavior, little is known regarding the relationships...

Impact of Armillaria and annosus root diseases on stand and canopy structure, species diversity, and down woody material in a central Oregon mixed-conifer forest

Creator:: Fields, Kristen L. N.
Abstract:: White and grand fir are both valuable components of the mixed-conifer stand structure managed for late-successional reserves in central Oregon. However, they are often short-lived species because of high susceptibility to root diseases, defoliating insects, bark beetles, and wildfire. This study focuses on the effects of root diseases caused by...

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,...
