Wood Resource In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, J.R. Jones, N.V. Debyle, R.P. Winokur

Aspen Bibliography

Aspen has not been cut extensively in the West; in fact, it has been grossly underutilized. For example, as recently as 1975, the aspen harvest from National Forests in four Forest Service regions in the Rocky Mountain area was 7.64 million board feet.1 Additional minor volumes were cut on special-use permits for products such as fuel and corral poles. The total amount cut represented only 0.1% of the net volume available in these aspen forests.

Progeny Testing Of Native Aspens And Their Hybrids For Biomass Production In Michigan, G.L. Reighard, J.W. Hanover Jan 1985

Progeny Testing Of Native Aspens And Their Hybrids For Biomass Production In Michigan, G.L. Reighard, J.W. Hanover

Aspen Bibliography

Anaspen progeny test consisting of 206 families of trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides), bigtooth apsen (P. grandidentata), and their hybrids (P. Xsmithii and P. Xrouleauiana) was planted on five Michigan sites and evaluated after two growing seasons. Growth performance of trembling aspen families when compared with all aspen taxa was above average and increased with the latitude of the plantation site. Backcrosses of trembling aspen males to white poplar-bigtooth aspen (P. Xrouleauiana) females produced the fastest growing families at all Lower Peninsula plantations. Most hybrid aspen (P. Xsmithii) families had growth rates below the planation …


Rotations In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, J.R. Jones, W.D. Shepperd Jan 1985

Rotations In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, J.R. Jones, W.D. Shepperd

Aspen Bibliography

The rotation, in forestry, is the planned number of years between formation of a crop or stand and its final harvest at a specified stage of maturity (Ford-Robertson 1971).


Vegetation Associations In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, Walter F. Mueggler Jan 1985

Vegetation Associations In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, Walter F. Mueggler

Aspen Bibliography

Aspen trees grow along moist stream bottoms as well as on dry ridges and southerly exposures, on talus slopes, and on shallow to deep soils of varied origins. Quaking aspen is one of the few plant species that can grow in all mountain vegetational zones from the alpine to the basal plain (Daubenmire 1943). As a consequence, aspen dominated communities are found intermixed with such divergent vegetation as semiarid shrublands and wet sprucefir forests

Wood Utilization In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, E.M. Wengert, D.M. Donelly, D.C. Markstrom, H.E. Worth Jan 1985

Wood Utilization In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, E.M. Wengert, D.M. Donelly, D.C. Markstrom, H.E. Worth

Aspen Bibliography

In the past, markets for quaking aspen timber from the Rocky Mountains have been insufficient to support significant harvesting. This shortage of markets severely restrained the potential for aspen management. As a result, many stands protected from wildfire gradually reverted to conifers (see the VEGETATIVE REGENERATION and FIRE chapters).

Esthetics And Landscaping In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, Craig W. Johnson, Thomas C. Brown, Michael L. Timmons Jan 1985

Esthetics And Landscaping In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, Craig W. Johnson, Thomas C. Brown, Michael L. Timmons

Aspen Bibliography

Aspen is valued for its scenic beauty. One indication of this is the trips to the "high country" that many forest visitors make to view the autumn color changes (fig. 1). Another is the frequency with which aspen is planted in urban and suburban areas. Subjective generalizations about the esthetic uses of aspen, although reasonable, provide only rough guidance for management of scenic quality. They can not be used to compare the relative beauty of different scenes, or to determine how much scenic beauty changes as the physical characteristics of the scene change, either naturally or as the result of …
