Assessing the Health of Pinus Radiata Plantations Using Remote Sensing Data and Decision Tree Analysis
Forest health monitoring is essential to sustainable management of Pinus radiata D. Don plantations. Conventional survey techniques such as aerial sketch mapping are qualitative and subjective, their effectiveness depending on the skill of the surveyor. In contrast, digital remote sensing has the potential to provide quantitative and objective data on the location, extent, and severity of crown...
متن کاملGrowth and water use of Eucalyptus grandis and Pinus radiata plantations irrigated with effluent.
We studied the growth and water balance of young plantations of Pinus radiata D. Don and Eucalyptus grandis W. Hill ex Maiden irrigated with effluent for 3 years in a climate of high net evaporation. The plantations were irrigated weekly with secondary-treated municipal effluent at the estimated water-use rate, or at nominally twice or half this rate. Control plots were irrigated with bore wate...
متن کاملAerobic power, huddling and the efficiency of torpor in the South American marsupial, Dromiciops gliroides
During periods of cold, small endotherms depend on a continuous supply of food and energy to maintain euthermic body temperature (T(b)), which can be challenging if food is limited. In these conditions, energy-saving strategies are critical to reduce the energetic requirements for survival. Mammals from temperate regions show a wide arrange of such strategies, including torpor and huddling. Her...
متن کاملThe Abortion of Conelets in Pinus Radiata
Observations and records collected over a six-year period show that, in a seed orchard of Pinus radiata at Kaingaroa Forest, approximately half of all female strobili initiated abort during the first year after pollination. For an average clone this process of conelet drop starts at the time of receptivity, reaches a peak some four to six weeks later, and then decreases in intensity. This time ...
متن کاملSuppression of Litter Decomposition by Mycorrhizal Roots of Pinus Radiata
Two experiments, designed to give more information about the suppression of litter decomposition by radiata pine (Pinus radiata D. Don) roots and their associated microflora, were carried out. In the first, root activity was reduced by cutting the boundaries of small areas of the forest floor in an unthinned stand. Samples collected after 3, 6, 9, and 12 months showed that less litter accumulat...
