This book was released on 2019 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beech Bark Disease (BBD) results in mortality of mature American beech (Fagus grandifolia Ehrh.) and increased beech sapling density, potentially resulting in reduced recruitment of desirable species, mast production for wildlife, and economic timber value. Changes in forest structure have been quantified in northeastern United States where BBD has been present since 1929. However, these patterns are less understood for managed forests at the western edge of beech distribution where infestations are much more recent. Furthermore, approaches aimed at ameliorating negative impacts to assure the sustainability of managed post-BBD forests are lacking. To better understand and manage BBD impacted forests, I (1) quantified regeneration structure in beech salvage harvests (partial removal) (2) assessed factors associated with regeneration patterns including winter deer use (pellet count surveys), habitat class (moisture/nutrient regime), geographic region, and post-harvest basal area, and (3) assessed the regeneration potential and likely management outcomes of study stands with a decision support tool I developed. Data used to address these goals were collected from multiple plots in 2.02 ha (5 ac) study areas in each of 69 harvested stands in northern Michigan. Throughout my study area, tree regeneration > 1.5 m tall was dominated by beech and ironwood (Ostrya virginiana (Mill.) K Koch), which are considered undesirable for management. Region (Northern Lower Peninsula vs. Eastern Upper Peninsula) was more important than habitat class (nutrient/water regime), post-harvest basal area, and current winter deer use in predicting tree regeneration composition and density. Despite dominance by undesirable species for stems > 1.5 m tall, most stands had high densities of desirable species (e.g. Acer saccharum) in

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Inventory of Beech Bark Disease Mortality and Decline on the Monongahela National Forest, West Virginia The beech scale was introduced from Europe into North America in 1890 near Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, and has since spread southward and westward. Disease development in northeastern forests has been characterized into three arbitrary stages (shigo The advancing front is described by a building population of scale insects; the killing front by large numbers of scale insects, severe attacks by Nectria and resultant tree mortality; and the aftermath zone by old, often defective trees, young defective sprout thickets, and an endemic population of scale and Nectria (shigo 1972; Houston This pattern has been observed throughout the northern hardwood forest extending into northeastern Pennsylvania (pa Dept.
