Book excerpt: Excerpt from Number of Plots Required for Measuring Productivity on Mountain Grasslands in Montana The purpose of this Research Note is to show the relationship between sample size (number of plots) and precision of measuring production on 12 mountain grassland and shrubland habitat types2 common to western Montana. This information should help the range manager obtain a more realistic view of the validity of his production determinations on these and similar habitat-types, i. Information presented in table 1 was developed from data obtained during a study to determine forage productivity and variability on important habitat types. Ten of the 12 habitat types are represented by three stands selected to span the range in productivity potential for the respective habitat type; the remaining two habitat types are represented by only two stands in each. A sampling technique combining estimation (40 plots) and clipping (10 plots) was used to determine production. The 10 clipped - ft2 circular plots were randomly distributed within each stand. These clipped plots provided an estimate of the coefficient of variation (cv) by vegetation classes and species in each stand. The CV in turn forms the basis for determining the number of plots required to achieve given levels of sampling precision. The formula used to compute the number of plots (n) needed for the specified levels of sampling accuracy (freese 1967) shown in table 1 is.

Download or read book Grassland and Shrubland Habitat Types of Western Montana written by W. F. Mueggler and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A classification system based upon potential natural vegetation is presented for the grasslands and shrublands of the mountainous western third of Montana. The classification was developed by analyzing data from 580 stands. Twenty-nine habitat types in 13 climax series are defined and a diagnostic key provided for field identification. Environment, vegetative composition, forage production, changes with grazing, and range management practices are described for each habitat type.

Download or read book Vegetation science applications for rangeland analysis and management written by P.T. Tueller and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 637 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Natural grasslands, pastures and meadows are among the vegetation types most frequently investigated with phytosociological methods. This was one of the reasons why volume 13, Application of vegetation science to grassland husbandry and agriculture, edited by W. Krause, appeared as one of the first volumes of this handbook. It appeared under the chief editorship of Prof. R. Tiixen and in his time main emphasis of the handbook was placed on Ziirich-Montpellier methods and the European vegetation. When we redesigned the handbook we felt the need to include other methods and aims of grassland analyses as well as a more global coverage of grasslands. Especially the natural dry and semidry areas of the world needed to be covered. was very fortunate in getting Prof. Tueller of the University of Reno I Nevada as an editor for this volume. He and the colleagues he motivated to compile volume 14 on Application of vegetation science to rangeland analysis and management have created a truly global coverage of the topics interesting for vegetation analyses in natural grasslands. Since volume 13 covered the problems of anthropogenically created grasslands, this topic was not expressly treated in order to avoid duplication. For the same reason no specific attempt was made to get more papers from Europe and the temperate forest region in general. The cooperation with Dr. Tueller has been very rewarding for me.

Book excerpt: Timber harvesting has a pronounced effect on the soil microflora by wood removal and changing properties. This paper gives a perspective on soil biology-harvesting relationships with emphasis on the northern Rocky Mountain region. Of special significance to forest management operations are the effects of soil micro-organisms on: the availability of soil nutrients, particularly nitrogen; the decay of woody plant material; and tree disease incidence. At present, no widespread detrimental impact on site quality in the northern Rocky Mountain region can be directly attributed to harvesting effects on the soil microflora.
