Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Logging Residue in Southeast Alaska Detailed information on logging residues in southeast Alaska is provided as input to economic and technical assessments of its use for products or site amenities. Two types of information are presented. Ratios are presented that can be used to gener ate an estimate, based on volume or acres harvested, of the cubic-foot volume of residue for any particular area of southeast Alaska. Separate ratios are given for live and dead or cull material, and for net and gross volume. Tables display per-acre residue volume by various characteristics that might affect either use or disposition. These tables show net or gross volume, or both, by diameter and length classes, by origin, by percentage of soundness, by degree of slopes and distance to roads, and by number of pieces of residue per acre. Keywords: Southeast Alaska, logging residue, slash, residue estimation, fuel wood, residue management. A large volume of woody biomass has traditionally remained on site after logging in southeast Alaska. Interest is growing in this material for energy and conventional products, as well as for its environmental attributes. A great deal of information is needed on the volume and characteristics of residue to adequately address these options. Existing sources were out of date and did not provide the information needed to make site-specific assessments for southeast Alaska. This study provides the capability to estimate the volume and characteristics of logging residue throughout southeast Alaska. This study had two objectives. The first was to develop ratios for use in estimating the volume of logging residue for any area in southeast Alaska. These ratios relate the quantity of residue to timber harvest volume or harvested acres. Study results show, for example. An average net volume of logging residue (wood only) of 79 to 109 cubic feet per thousand board feet of harvest and an average gross volume ranging from 125 to 158 cubic feet per thousand board feet of harvest. The second objective was to provide data characterizing logging residue in ways that might affect its utilization for various products or its management for environmental considerations.

This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Potential for Economical Recovery of Fuel From Land Clearing Residue in Interior Alaska A manufacturer of densified fuel logs made from plywood mill residue, located in Grants Pass, Oregon, produced experimental fuel logs using four types of land clearing residue from interior Alaska: black spruce, moss, a mixture of paper birch and aspen, and a mixture of moss and black spruce. The logs were 3 inches in diameter and 10 inches long. People who burned the experimental fuel logs in their home heating systems liked spruce and the mixture of paper birch and aspen, but they generally did not like the moss fuel logs as well as firewood. The moss logs burned slowly, smoked, and left a high proportion as ash. Fuel logs stored in covered but unheated storage over winter tended to decompress during the transition to summer; fuel logs stored in covered, heated buildings did not.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Physical Effect of Logging on Salmon Streams of Southern Alaska The principal and most valuable industry of Alaska has been the salmon fisheries. Future development of Southeast Alaska, however, will depend on an increasing utilization of its important forest resource. The fisheries resource and the timber resource are intimately related. Reliable answers are therefore needed as to whether large-scale pulp timber logging is harmful to the spawning facilities of salmon streams.

This book was released on 2018-09-08 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Logging Residues in Principal Forest Types of the Northern Rocky Mountains Recent years have seen growing interest in forest residues-the woody material that is left after harvesting. This interest stems from two basic concerns: residues as a source of additional wood fiber at a time of dwindling timber supplies and the role of residues in the forest environment. On the one hand, dead trees may provide habitat for birds and small animals, and down material may provide protection against soil erosion and in the process of decay provide essential nutrients to the site. On the other hand, the public dislikes unsightly accumulations of logging debris, and dead and down material can be a fire hazard or impede movement of wildlife.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lodgepole Pine Logging Residues: Management Alternatives In recent years there has been a growing concern over timber harvesting practices and the disposal of the resulting logging residues. Although alternative methods of harvesting and handling residues have been suggested, there has often been a lack of information on the feasibility and on the effects these alternatives might have on the forest resource and its management, and on the environment, esthetics, and related matters. In 1971, a study was begun to evaluate a system of harvesting mature lodgepole pine (pinus contorta Dougl.) in which virtually all the logging residue - branches, tops, and dead and cull materia1-was yarded and chipped at the logging site. The study area is located in Wyoming near the Union Pass area of the Teton National Forest. U.s. Plywood Division of Champion International and the usda Forest Service1 cooperated in the study. Presently, chips produced in the study cannot be marketed locally. A critical part of evaluating the feasibility of field chipping, however, is to determine the costs and evaluate the methods for logging and chipping. In addition, the environmental and esthetic effects of logging that removes nearly all the woody material from the land are of interest. These concerns coupled with the opportunity to cooperate among the participants led to this study. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Logging Residues Under Different Stand and Harvesting Conditions, Rocky Mountains This paper describes postharvest residues from 34 typical logging units in the Northern Rockies. Some of the units were logged to conventional utilization standards, other units or subunits were logged to more intensive utilization standards. Volumes and characteristics of residues can vary considerably from those reported here. However, these initial data should provide a general idea of the amounts and characteristics of residues left after logging. In addition, we hope that this paper will stimulate managers to make their own evaluations of logging residues.
