Rehabilitation of Understocked Loblolly- Shortleaf Pine Stands- III. Natural Stands Cutover 15 Years Previously but Unmanaged
Plots in an unmanaged loblolly-shortleaf pine (Pinus taeda L.-P. echinata Mill.) stand that had been cutover I5 yrpreviously were established to representfive stocking levels: 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50%. The stand was on a good site (site indexLob = 90 ft at 50 yr) and had uneven-aged character. Two competition control treatments (none and individual tree release using herbicide) were also assigne...
متن کاملEcosystem Responses to Partial Harvesting in Eastern Boreal Mixedwood Stands
Partial harvesting has been proposed as a key aspect to implementing ecosystem management in the Canadian boreal forest. We report on a replicated experiment located in boreal mixedwoods of Northwestern Quebec. In the winter of 2000–2001, two partial harvesting treatments, one using a dispersed pattern, and a second, which created a (400 m) gap pattern, were applied to a 90-year-old aspen-domin...
متن کاملHabitat Selection by Bats in Fragmented and Unfragmented Aspen Mixedwood Stands of Different Ages
To determine if bats prefer certain ages of aspen mixedwood forest for roosting and foraging, and to predict the impacts of logging on bats, we compared the relative abundances and foraging activities of bats in young, mature, and old stands in and , using bat detectors. In , we also assessed post-logging bat abundances in two of the mature and two of the old stands. We tracked rad...
متن کاملSilvicultural Considerations in Managing Southern Pine Stands in the Context of Southern Pine Beetle
Roughly 30 percent of the 200 million acres of forest land in the South supports stands dominated by southern pines. These are among the most productive forests in the nation. Adapted to disturbance, southern pines are relatively easy to manage with even-aged methods such as clearcutting and planting, or the seed tree and shelterwood methods with natural regeneration. In addition, most species ...
متن کاملEvaluation of new silvicultural alternatives for scots pine stands in northern Spain
The new objectives which society is demanding of forest systems are leading to deep changes in their management. Aspects such as biodiversity preservation and recreation require forest management alternatives that are not based on the traditional management centered on the maximization of timber production. In this paper, we introduce five silvicultural alternatives different from those typical...
