Book excerpt: Contains papers presented at a meeting to help answer biological, technical, and policy questions related to pre-commercial and commercial thinning programs. Papers are arranged in four broad topic areas: stand density management concepts, planning, and silvicultural prescriptions; growth and yield responses and monitoring; stand protection and environmental issues; and operations experience and harvesting technology.

Book Thinning of Scots Pine and Norway Spruce Monocultures in Sweden

Download or read book Thinning of Scots Pine and Norway Spruce Monocultures in Sweden written by Urban Nilsson and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of thinning intensity, thinning interval, thinning form and timing of the first thinning on stand level gross- and net stem volume production in Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and Norway spruce (Picea abies L. Karst) was investigated in a nationwide field experiment across Sweden. In total, 35 Scots pine sites distributed from the south to the north of Sweden and 13 Norway spruce sites located in the south and central parts of Sweden were investigated. Thinning treatments ranged from unthinned control, to light and moderate repeated thinnings, to a treatment where 60-70% of the basal area was removed in a single thinning. In addition, thinning from above was compared to thinning from below and delayed first thinning was compared to early first thinning. The average measurement period was 31 years for Scots pine and 30 years for Norway spruce. All Scots pine thinning treatments reduced the total gross stem volume production compared to the unthinned control, whereas only the heaviest thinning treatments, in which a large proportion of the basal area was removed, reduced the total gross stem volume production for Norway spruce. Thinning from above did not affect total gross stem volume production of Scots pine, but there was a tendency towards lower production in Norway spruce. For Norway spruce, thinning from above resulted in lower net stem volume production than thinning from below. Delaying the first thinning did not affect gross stem volume production for either Scots pine or Norway spruce. Net volume production and volume production in trees with diameter at breast height> 8 cm was higher for the light thinning treatment than for the unthinned control in Norway spruce. In Scots pine, there was no difference between the light thinning treatment and unthinned control in net volume production. For cots pine, the heavy thinning treatments decreased net volume production compared to the unthinned threatment whereas there were no differences in net volume production between the heavy thinning treatments and unthinned control in Norway spruce.

Book Wood Quality and its Biological Basis

Download or read book Wood Quality and its Biological Basis written by John Barnett and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-02-18 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wood is the most versatile raw material available to man. It isburned as fuel, shaped into utensils, used as a structuralengineering material, converted into fibres for paper production,and put to newer uses as a source of industrial chemicals. Its quality results largely from the chemical and physicalstructure of the cell walls of its component fibres, which can bemodified in nature as the tree responds to physical environmentalstresses. Internal stresses can accumulate, which are releasedcatastrophically when the tree is felled, often rendering thetimber useless. The quality of timber as an engineering materialalso depends on the structure of the wood and the way in which ithas developed in the living tree. Tree improvement for quality cannot be carried out without anunderstanding of the biological basis underlying wood formation andstructure. This volume brings together the viewpoints of bothbiologists and physical scientists, covering the spectrum from theformation of wood to its structure and properties, and relatingthese properties to industrial use. This is a volume for researchers and professionals in plantphysiology, molecular biology and biochemistry.
