Book excerpt: Excerpt from Costs of Logging Virgin Ponderosa Pine in Central Idaho The selection of two tractor sizes (fig. 1) for inclusion in the ex periment was prompted by consideration of timber stand damage and water shed damage as well as by the desire to compare their efficiency of opera tion in the timber and topography of this area. The large tractor is the Size commonly used in ponderosa pine operations in Idaho. The small tractor was considered to be the least powerful tractor that could operate successfully under typical conditions. Tractor skidding without pans or arches is typical of most logging in this part of Idaho. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Product Recovery of Ponderosa Pine in Arizona and New Mexico Ponderosa pine (pinus ponderosa Dougl. Ex Laws.) is not only the most important commercial timber species in Arizona and New Mexico but also a resource in transition. The old-growth yellow pine is being supplemented in the timber harvest by increasing volumes of blackjack or bull pine from young-growth stands. Old growth is the premier source of Select grade lumber and stock for millwork, but young-growth trees produce mostly less valuable structural and common grades of lumber. The young growth will not support the moulding and millwork industry that is based on old-growth pine, and the change may result in reduced employment in the forest products industry, even if National Forest harvests are maintained at current levels. Given this changing resource, a main objective of this study was to document current use of mature and young stands, to provide a current appraisal base for National Forest timber sales, and to evaluate alternative methods of scaling and grading logs. Specific objectives in 1981 when the study was run, were to develop recovery infor mation in relation to the scaling methods used, to demonstrate value differences among different grades of logs in relation to how logs and lumber are measured, to document the relation between lumber grades recovered and the grade of logs sawn, and to provide a means of estimating product value. To meet these objectives, it was necessary to develop a working definition of young growth and to determine if the value of products was different between young growth and old growth as defined.

Download or read book Idaho Lumber Production 1956 Classic Reprint written by Alvin K Wilson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Idaho Lumber Production, 1956 Douglas-fir led all species with a cut of nearly 399 million board feet, or about one-quarter of Idaho's total. The true firs (grand, white, and al pine), with 305 million board feet, were practically tied with ponderosa pine (304 million board feet) for second place, each making up 19 percent of all lumber produced. Engelmann spruce (14 percent) and western white pine (12 percent) occupied fourth and fifth places, respectively. By far the greatest part of Idaho's lumber was cut by mills having ah nual capacities for 10 million board feet or more. These large mills produced million board feet or more than 72 percent of the State total. Mills with yearly production of 5 to 10 million board feet sawed 12 percent, and those in the l to 5 million class sawed 13 percent, leaving slightly more than 2 percent of the total for mills having smaller outputs. The survey shows that 311 sawmills were active for all or part of 1956. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Fundamentals of Tree Ring Research written by James H. Speer and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tree-ring dating (dendrochronology) is a method of scientific dating based on the analysis of tree-ring growth patterns. As author James Speer notes, trees are remarkable bioindicators. Although there are other scientific means of dating climatic and environmental events, dendrochronology provides the most reliable of all paleorecords. Dendrochronology can be applied to very old trees to provide long-term records of past temperature, rainfall, fire, insect outbreaks, landslides, hurricanes, and ice storms--to name only a few events. This comprehensive text addresses all of the subjects that a reader who is new to the field will need to know and will be a welcome reference for practitioners at all levels. It includes a history of the discipline, biological and ecological background, principles of the field, basic scientific information on the structure and growth of trees, the complete range of dendrochronology methods, and a full description of each of the relevant subdisciplines. Individual chapters address the composition of wood, methods of field and laboratory study, dendroarchaeology, dendroclimatology, dendroecology, dendrogeomorphology, and dendrochemistry. The book also provides thorough introductions to common computer programs and methods of statistical analysis. In the final chapter, the author describes "frontiers in dendrochronology," with an eye toward future directions in the field. He concludes with several useful appendixes, including a listing of tree and shrub species that have been used successfully by dendrochronologists. Throughout, photographs and illustrations visually represent the state of knowledge in the field.

This book was released on 2021-02-01 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book describes the serious threat of invasive species to native ecosystems. Invasive species have caused and will continue to cause enormous ecological and economic damage with ever increasing world trade. This multi-disciplinary book, written by over 100 national experts, presents the latest research on a wide range of natural science and social science fields that explore the ecology, impacts, and practical tools for management of invasive species. It covers species of all taxonomic groups from insects and pathogens, to plants, vertebrates, and aquatic organisms that impact a diversity of habitats in forests, rangelands and grasslands of the United States. It is well-illustrated, provides summaries of the most important invasive species and issues impacting all regions of the country, and includes a comprehensive primary reference list for each topic. This scientific synthesis provides the cultural, economic, scientific and social context for addressing environmental challenges posed by invasive species and will be a valuable resource for scholars, policy makers, natural resource managers and practitioners.
