This book was released on 2005 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stereo photographs, hemispherical photographs, and stand data are presented with associated biomass and canopy fuel characteristics for five Interior West conifer stands. Canopy bulk density, canopy base height, canopy biomass by component, available canopy fuel load, and vertical distribution of canopy fuel are presented for each plot at several stages of sampling, each corresponding to a level of simulated low thinning (100, 75, 50, and 25 percent of the initial basal area). This guide will help fuel managers estimate canopy fuel characteristics in similar forest conditions.

Spatial and Temporal Stand Dynamics of Mature Lodgepole Pine Forests of the Canadian Rocky Mountains

This book was released on 2015 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In forest ecosystems, structure and species composition change over time as a function of ageing and minor disturbances and it is important to understand these changes for predicting forest productivity and habitat suitability for other plant and animal biota. Disturbances play a major role in controlling these changes and in many forest ecosystems disturbance regimes have recently changed due to either the influence of climate or human management. The reduced fire frequency and recent mountain pine beetle (MPB) outbreak in lodgepole pine forests of Alberta are a good example of such changes. These forests were historically characterized by relatively frequent stand-initiating disturbance but previous studies have recognized a variety of post-fire successional pathways. We have a limited understanding of the pattern and underlying processes of stand dynamics of these forests, particularly in mature forests as they proceed towards the canopy breakup stage. To better understand the dynamics of both the understory and overstory communities of mature lodgepole pine forest I used data from spatially explicit long term permanent plots in the Rocky Mountains of Alberta, Canada to determine the mechanisms or processes responsible for the observed patterns in community composition and structure as well as how these patterns changed in time. I also used dendrochronology to reconstruct the timing of establishment and disturbance history to assess how they influenced stand dynamics. I first assessed whether canopy closure led to the homogenization and convergence of understory communities and if the processes spatially structuring these communities changed during stand development. I also assessed what was driving mortality of lodgepole pine trees and if mortality in different canopy positions was affected by different processes. Finally I assessed which factors were influencing the establishment and survival of regeneration throughout stand development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A recent survey of mountain pine beetle (MPB) attack in mature and immature pine leading stands indicated that attack rate was a function of tree size, age and stand density. However, the temporal dynamics of MPB attack in mature and immature stands, as well as the release of the regeneration layer or secondary structure under a dying canopy, are poorly understood. The primary objectives of this study were to i) investigate temporal and spatial aspects of MPB attack, ii) investigate regeneration dynamics (mortality and growth) of post-beetle attack, iii) model growth and yield with actual mortality and regeneration metrics, iv) describe economic opportunities of harvest scheduling with respect to post-MPB stand structure and v) develop improved management and regeneration options."--Document.
