Stand-Level Green Biomass Equations For Sawtimber-Sized Loblolly Pine In Arkansas, Paul F. Doruska, David W. Patterson, Travis E. Posey Jan 2004

Stand-Level Green Biomass Equations For Sawtimber-Sized Loblolly Pine In Arkansas, Paul F. Doruska, David W. Patterson, Travis E. Posey

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

Loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) is commercially the most important timber species in southern Arkansas and the southern United States. Results of stand-level timber inventories have traditionally been reported in terms of volume, yet loblolly pine sawtimber is bought and sold based on biomass. A straight forward stand-level conversion from volume per hectare to biomass per hectare does not exist for Arkansas, thus complicating the valuation of standing loblolly pine sawtimber. Two equations were developed to predict stand-level, outside-bark, green biomass per unit area for loblolly pine stands in southern Arkansas. The merchantable sawlog equation presented herein explained approximately 95% …


Seedling Response In A Greenhouse To Four Rates Of Old And New Paper Mill Sludge, Jimmie L. Yeiser Jan 1988

Seedling Response In A Greenhouse To Four Rates Of Old And New Paper Mill Sludge, Jimmie L. Yeiser

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

Four rates (0, 36, 75, and 11 2 DT/A)of both old and new pulp-mill sludges were tested in a greenhouse for impact on survival and growth of seedlings of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L). After one growing season no meaningful differences were detected for seedling survival and growth, number off lushes, and decomposition rate for old and new sludges regardless of rate. Seedling foliage showed increases in Mg and Ca and sludges exhibited high pH and increased salinity.
