Research Report No. 3, Estimating Site Index, Jock A. Blackard
Informal Project Reports
Equi'.'ltions to predi ct site index (base age 25 years) for lotilolly pine (P1:1Jt1s toeo'o L.) and slE1sh pine (Pim1s elliatiii Engelrn.) pl6ntotions on non-old-fields in Eest Texfls are presented. Productivity is estimated using plantation age and avernge height of Urn ten tallest trees in the plflntotion. 1

Informal Project Reports
Equations to estimate individual total tree height of loblolly pine ( Pinus taeda L. ) and slash pine ( Pinus elliottii Engelm. ) trees Planted on non-old-fields in East Texas are presented.

Survival Of Pines On Droughty Soils: Two-Year Results, James Kroll, William C. Deauman, C. Darwin Foster, David Kulhavy, W. David Tracey

Three species of pines (loblolly, slash and longleaf) were planted with four treatments (loblolly and slash = bareroot, clay dip slurry and TerrasorH ; longleaf = containerized) to test survival on droughty, typic quartzipsamments soils. At the end of the first season, survival~s significantly better for the containerized longleaf and Terrasoro treated loblolly pine (81 and 85%) followed by untreaRed loblolly pine (51%), clay-treated loblolly (50%), then Terrasorb treated slash (48%), untreated slash (41%) and clay-treated slash (36%). At the e~of the second growing season, longleaf had 56% survival, Terrasor~ treated loblolly (51%), clay-dip slurry loblolly (31.9%), Terrasoro treated slash …
Establishment Of Permanent Growth And Yield Plots In Loblolly And Slash Pine Plantations, J. David Lenhart, Ellis V. Hunt Jr., Jock A. Blackard
Establishment Of Permanent Growth And Yield Plots In Loblolly And Slash Pine Plantations, J. David Lenhart, Ellis V. Hunt Jr., Jock A. Blackard
Faculty Publications
Permanent plots have been established in 178 loblolly and 78 slash pine plantations throughout East Texas to study the development of stand structure over time. Analysis of the data will provide methods of estimating growth and yield, mortality, and site productivity to assist managers of these plantations.
