Book excerpt: Excerpt from Impacts of State and Private Programs on Forest Resources and Industries in the South Concern for the ravages of fire in southern forests was reflected in the establishment of a forest commission in Alabama in 1907. Interest had been stimulated by Charles Mohr, who was employed by the Forest Service to do preliminary surveys and prepare a working plan for some lands in central Alabama. His comments about the damage to young growth caused by fire and observations about the loss of productivity of some burned-over lands being farmed for cotton gained support for his efforts and led to the introduction of this bill in the legislature.

This book was released on 2018-02-10 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Working Plan for Forest Lands Near Pine Bluff, Arkansas A working plan is simply a scheme of management for a forest tract. To prepare it a thorough study must be made not only of the present character of the forest, but also of its capacity to furnish future yields and of the conditions which will govern the transport and marketing of the timber cut. Upon this study is based a system atic plan for lumbering. The point of View is purely practical; the purpose is to prescribe cuttings which will not only pay, but will also tend toward the gradual and sustained improvement of the forest. It is a business policy recommended after an expert investigation. In the preparation of a working plan two important points to be determined are: (1) The amount of timber standing; (2) the rate at which the principal species are growing. This known, it is possible to estimate what will be the yield of timber after a given' number of years, and also to calculate the amount of merchantable timber which the forest is capable of producing each year, so that, if desired, the annual cut may be made equal to the annual production and a sustained yield of timber be assured. On the tract of the Sawyer Austin Lumber Company one of the chief objects in making a working plan was to determine whether the present tract is large enough to furnish a sustained yield equal to the yearly capacity of the mill, and if not, to estimate the additional area necessary to secure such a result.

Download or read book Ecology of Hierarchical Landscapes written by Jiquan Chen and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2006 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea for this book grew out of: (1) the realisation that development of the theory of landscape ecology has now reached the point where rigorous field work is required to validate models, test assumptions and ideas of scaling theory, and refine our understanding of landscape features and their delineation; (2) the relative scarcity of compilations that have examined the role of field research or interdisciplinary management applications in advancing the science of landscape ecology; and (3) the increasing amount of information coming out of the Chequamegon Integrated Field Project (CIFP) on relevant topics. This book synthesises the experiences and lessons learned from the CIFP project and other relevant landscape studies in an attempt to demonstrate the utility of field studies and emerging technology to the advancement of the science. This book is organised to synthesise and update knowledge on research topics mentioned previously, with an emphasis on ecological consequences (i.e., implications for ecological function) of the approach to and understanding of these topics across levels of the ecological hierarchy.

Download or read book Stepping Back to Look Forward written by Charles H. W. Foster and published by Harvard University Forest. This book was released on 1998 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely collection of essays - written by nine recognized forestry and environmental specialists - tells the story of the conservation, use, and changes in the Commonwealth's forests over time. The book traces the development of pre-settlement, colonial, and post-Revolutionary War forest practices, and concludes with recommendations as to how history might be used to inform and shape future policy. Underscored is the importance of private and local leadership, such as the unique Massachusetts town forest movement. Economic contributions and educational programs are detailed, as well as the ways Massachusetts' leadership has influenced national forestry. Written for the layperson, and reflecting the particular experience and style of each contributor, the history will appeal to a range of readers from local conservation activists to forestry professionals and policymakers.
Download or read book Looking for Longleaf written by Lawrence S. Earley and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2005-10-12 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covering 92 million acres from Virginia to Texas, the longleaf pine ecosystem was, in its prime, one of the most extensive and biologically diverse ecosystems in North America. Today these magnificent forests have declined to a fraction of their original extent, threatening such species as the gopher tortoise, the red-cockaded woodpecker, and the Venus fly-trap. Conservationists have proclaimed longleaf restoration a major goal, but has it come too late? In Looking for Longleaf, Lawrence S. Earley explores the history of these forests and the astonishing biodiversity of the longleaf ecosystem, drawing on extensive research and telling the story through first-person travel accounts and interviews with foresters, ecologists, biologists, botanists, and landowners. For centuries, these vast grass-covered forests provided pasture for large cattle herds, in addition to serving as the world's greatest source of naval stores. They sustained the exploitative turpentine and lumber industries until nearly all of the virgin longleaf had vanished. Looking for Longleaf demonstrates how, in the twentieth century, forest managers and ecologists struggled to understand the special demands of longleaf and to halt its overall decline. The compelling story Earley tells here offers hope that with continued human commitment, the longleaf pine might not just survive, but once again thrive.

Download or read book Ecotones Between Forest and Grassland written by Randall W. Myster and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-07-10 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecotones are dynamic over-lapping boundary areas where major terrestrial biomes meet. As past studies have shown, and as the chapters in this book will illustrate, their structure, size, and scope have changed considerably over the millennia, expanding and shrinking as climate and/or other driving conditions, also changed. Today, however, many of them are changing at a rate not seen for a long time, perhaps largely due to climate change and other human-induced factors. Indeed ecotones are more sensitive to climate change than the biomes on either side, and thus may serve as critical early indicators of future climate change. As ecotones change, they also redefine the limits of the biomes on either side by altering their distributions of species because, in addition to their own endemic species, any ecotone will also have species from both adjoining biomes. Consequently, they may also be places of high levels of species interaction, serving as active evolutionary laboratories, which generate new species that then migrate back into adjacent biomes. Ecotones Between Forest and Grassland explores how these ecotones have changed in the past, how they are changing today, and how they are likely to change in the future. The book includes chapters from around the world with a special focus on South American and Neotropical ecotones.
