Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science
A study of two species of bark beetle (lps pini Say and I. grandicollis Eichh.) and the fungi associated with them has been made as the first part of a general investigation of the interrelations of insects and fungi in the deterioration of felled logs of Norway pine.
Forest Fire Damage Studies In The Northeast--I. Bark-Beetles And Fire Damaged Hardwoods, Paul W. Stickel
Forest Fire Damage Studies In The Northeast--I. Bark-Beetles And Fire Damaged Hardwoods, Paul W. Stickel
The Bark Beetles, Fuels, and Fire Bibliography
In reporting the damage to trees scorched lightly at the base by fire the average fire warden and even the technically trained forester is given to stating that little harm has been done providing the tree crowns remain green. Such a statement is far from being correct, failing as it does to take into account the aftermath of insect and fungus damage which invariably follows even the lightest of surface fires. In the case reported herein, over 50 per cent of the fire-scorched hardwoods showed signs of the presence of ambrosia-beetles, whose work, even if the trees continue to live, …
Ecological Relations In The Pitch Pine Plains Of Southern New Jersey, Harold J. Lutz
Ecological Relations In The Pitch Pine Plains Of Southern New Jersey, Harold J. Lutz
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
An investigation was undertaken with the primary object of determining the factors responsible for the peculiar development of the vegetation in the Plains community. The conclusion ·is reached that the Plains areas are capable of supporting forest growth similar to that in the Pine Barrens. Inasmuch as the Plains owe their continued existence to repeated fires, it is obvious that effective fire protection is the first and most important step toward their rehabilitation.

Periodic measurements were made throughout two growing seasons to determine the rate of growth in length of lateral roots of white pine, four to six years old, planted in open fields.....Wide variation between individual roots was observed in the amount of growth made annually.
Trenched Plots Under Forest Canopies, James W. Toumey, Raymond Kienholz
Trenched Plots Under Forest Canopies, James W. Toumey, Raymond Kienholz
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
The relative importance of light and soil moisture in particular is better known than that of other environmental factors. We are coming to believe that the nature and condition of the reproduction and other surface vegetation beneath living canopies are not due to any single factor such as light or soil moisture, but to a complex of factors.

The Effect Of Soil Moisture On The Establishment Of Spruce Reproduction In British Columbia, Percy Munson Barr
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
Most of the field work has been conducted at the Aleza Lake Forest Experiment Station, in the valley of the Upper Fraser River, near the city of Prince George [British Columbia].
I. A series of twelve permanent plots (numbers 1 to 12) was established for the purpose of studying the occurrence of natural reproduction on various types of seed bed, under different densities of overwood and on northern and southern aspects. 2. A second series of four plots (numbers 17 to 20) was laid out in logged-off land for the purpose of studying the survival and growth of advance reproduction …
Some Aspects Of Light In The Forest, Amihud Grasovsky
Some Aspects Of Light In The Forest, Amihud Grasovsky
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
In this present investigation an attempt is made to determine experimentally to what extent light controls the vegetation on the forest floor and, consequently, succession of the forest flora, and whether under natural canopies light can be looked upon as a limiting factor in plant survival.
The general conclusion reached is that the intensity and quality of the light reaching the forest floor are not the determining factors in accounting for the presence or absence of reproduction in the fully stocked forest where the investigation was made.
Trends And Silvicultural Significance Of Upland Forest Successions In Southern New England, Harold J. Lutz
Trends And Silvicultural Significance Of Upland Forest Successions In Southern New England, Harold J. Lutz
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
The problems encountered in the silvicultural treatment of southern New England forests are many. They result largely from the extremely diverse and complex conditions under which the forest is developed. Due to the glaciated nature of the region the soil character changes radically within relatively short distances. With changes in soil from place to place come minor changes of forest composition. One of the chief reasons for the problems which the silviculturalist encounters in this region is the large number of species which make up the stands. There are approximately thirty commercially important forest trees in southern New England. The …
The Testing Of Coniferous Tree Seeds At The School Of Forestry, Yale University, 1906-1926, James W. Toumey, Clark L. Stevens
The Testing Of Coniferous Tree Seeds At The School Of Forestry, Yale University, 1906-1926, James W. Toumey, Clark L. Stevens
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
Quality in forest tree seed centers in (a) origin; (b) genuineness; (c) purity; and (d) viability. The purchaser should insist on knowing the origin of the seed and the locality where it was collected.
Without seed testing establishments for investigating forest tree seeds by standardized methods under an established technique, nurserymen and foresters will continue to sow seed beds and undertake direct seeding without an adequate knowledge of the origin, genuineness, purity, and viability of the seeds used.
Factors Controlling Germination And Early Survival In Oaks, Clarence F. Korstian
Factors Controlling Germination And Early Survival In Oaks, Clarence F. Korstian
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
There is little information available upon the seed and seedling characteristics of the American oaks. Among the fundamental problems in American silviculture, those which relate to seed efficiency are especially important. The future productiveness of the hardwood forests in which chestnut has been an important·element rests largely upon seed and sprout efficiency. Seed efficiency is governed by (I) seed production, (2) seed distribution, and (3) the factors affecting the reproductive value of the seed, such as viability, storage of seed in the litter of the forest floor, and destruction by insects and rodents.
Factors Determining Natural Reproduction Of Longleaf Pine On Cut-Over Lands In Lasalle Parish, Louisiana, Herman H. Chapman
Factors Determining Natural Reproduction Of Longleaf Pine On Cut-Over Lands In Lasalle Parish, Louisiana, Herman H. Chapman
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
The original ' pine forests, of the southern states covered from 125 to 130 million acres of land, about two-thirds of which was Longleaf pine. Four-fifths of this area had been cut over by 1920, leaving about 230 million acres, one-half of which is Longleaf pine. Of the cut-over lands, 31 million acres have not restocked. The Longleaf pine has thus been the principal tree crop on about 85 million acres of land, of which 11% million acres remained' in 1920, giving a cut-over area of nearly 73 million acres, or 114,062 square miles. This area is nearly half the …

Soil Temperature As Influenced By Forest Cover, Tsi-Tung Li
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
The purpose of this investigation is to study the effect of the forest on soil temperature at definite depths, expressed in terms of daily maximum and daily minimum. By forest is meant not only the trees but the surface vegetation and litter as well. Effort was made to preserve the vegetation and litter from being disturbed over the period covered by the investigation.
Boxwoods, Samuel J. Record, George A. Garratt
Boxwoods, Samuel J. Record, George A. Garratt
Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series
True boxwood, commonly called Turkish boxwood, is derived from a small group of plants, of which the common evergreen ·box of our gardens is the type. To this group the famous botanist Linnaeus gave the generic name of Buxis, the Latin for box tree. He called the best known member of it Buxis sempervirens, which is' but another form of Ovid's "buxus perpetuo virens," the evergreen box. For long this was considered the only species, though various forms and varieties came to be recognized, several of which have since been elevated by other botanists to specific rank.

Practical Information On The Scolytid Beetles On North American Forests I. Barkbeetles Of The Genus Dendroctonus, Andrew Delmar Hopkins
The Bark Beetles, Fuels, and Fire Bibliography
During the writer's investigations of extensive insect depredations in the forests of West Virginia, from 1890 to 1902, he was forcibly impressed with the importance of the forest-insect problem in connection with any future efforts toward the successful management of the forests of this country, and was thus led to give special attention to the subject. It was soon realized that among the principal groups of insect enemies of forest trees the scolytid bark and wood boring beetles must occupy first rank, both in economic importance and systematic interest. Subsequent investigations in West Virginia, in connection with the work of …
Plant Migration Studies: Forest Trees, Charles E. Bessey
Plant Migration Studies: Forest Trees, Charles E. Bessey
Papers from the University Studies series (University of Nebraska)
It is a familiar fact that new species appear from time to time among the native plants of a region. Such newcomers turn out on examination to be new only in the sense that they have not previously lived in the region, and in every instance these new plants are found to have come from other regions where they had existed for a longer or shorter period of time. In some cases the · new species remain for a time and then disappear, or at least become inconspicuous, but more commonly they crowd in among the former plants and become …
