Book Stand Development and Yields of Appalachian Hardwood Stands Managed with Single tree Selection for at Least 30 Years

Download or read book Stand Development and Yields of Appalachian Hardwood Stands Managed with Single tree Selection for at Least 30 Years written by Neil I. Lamson and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: S2Appalachian hardwood stands in West Virginia were managed for 30 or more years using single-tree selection regeneration practices. Stand yield data suggest that current stand growth will provide economical harvest cuts for several future cutting cycles. This case study indicates that single-tree selection has potential for landowners who want to maintain continuous overstory cover and are willing to accept the gradual species shift to more shade-tolerant species.S3.

This book was released on 2018-01-11 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Appraisal of Early Reproduction After Cutting in Northern Appalachian Hardwood Stands The forest Stands on all the areas studied were first logged between 1905 and 1910. In some locations the cutting approached a clearcut; in less accessible stands it was a light high-grading. When research cuttings were started on the Experimental Forest in 1949, the stands were composed mainly of three classes of trees above 5 inches (1) second-growth Appalachian hardwoods, 40 to 45 years old; (2) old residual trees left from the original cutting; and (3) a scattering of pole-size trees that had come up in openings created by the death of the chestnut around 1930. The stands were characteristically uneven-aged and well-stocked, and they had not been burned for at least 35 years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: S2After more than 20 years of USDA Forest Service research on the growth and yield of hardwoods in the Central States, we can now confidently make recommendations for the management and culture of upland hardwood stands that are predominantly oak. In this paper I will deal with the first 50 years of stand development under one logical thinning policy. S3.

Book Method for Applying Group Selection in Central Appalachian Hardwoods

Download or read book Method for Applying Group Selection in Central Appalachian Hardwoods written by Gary W. Miller and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public concern over the adverse visual impact of clearcutting has heightened interest in developing and testing alternative regeneration practices for central Appalachian hardwoods. When applied properly, group selection, which entails making small openings within a timber stand at regular intervals, can meet aesthetic goals while providing suitable light conditions to reproduce shade-intolerant species. Volume control and residual stand density are used to regulate periodic cuts, which include volume removed to create openings plus volume removed between openings to improve the quality and distribution of the residual stand. In central Appalachian hardwoods, openings must have a minimum size of 0.4 acre; all stems 1.0 inch d.b.h. and larger are cut to reproduce desirable shade-intolerant species. Maximum opening size is based on aesthetic requirements or other management constraints. Where reproduction of shade-intolerant species is acceptable, openings can be as small as a space occupied by a few trees. Openings should be located using the worst first approach to give the growing space occupied by mature trees or risky trees to faster growing, desirable regeneration. The residual stand between openings should be improved by cutting poor quality or high-risk trees. The recommended residual basal area in sawtimber-size trees (11.0 inches d.b.h. and larger) is related to northern red oak site index (SI): 70 to 85 ft2/acre for SI 80.55 to 70 ft2/acre for SI 70, and 40 to 55 ft2/acre for SI 80. These field-tested methods can help forest managers initiate group selection in second-growth Appalachian hardwoods. Guidelines are presented for computing the cut, determining size, location, and number of openings, and marking the stand.
