Development Of An Aspen Sucker Stand Following Irrigation And Fertilization, G.W. Wyckoff, D.W. Einspahr, M.K. Benson Jan 1990

Development Of An Aspen Sucker Stand Following Irrigation And Fertilization, G.W. Wyckoff, D.W. Einspahr, M.K. Benson

Aspen Bibliography

A 16-18 year-old aspen stand was harvested in 1969. Aerial biomass components were determined and soils evaluated. Treatments of fertilizer, irrigation, fertilizer + irrigation and control were applied over a seven year period following harvest. Stand measurements were taken periodically over 18 years. Fertilization produced growth increases of 45-55 percent. Height, diameter, and stems per acre were affected by treatments. Guidelines for fertilizer application were developed from leaf tissue analysis.

Breeding Birds In Uncut Aspen And 6- To 10-Year-Old Clearcuts In Southwestern Colorado, V.E. Scott, G.L. Crouch Jan 1988

Breeding Birds In Uncut Aspen And 6- To 10-Year-Old Clearcuts In Southwestern Colorado, V.E. Scott, G.L. Crouch

Aspen Bibliography

Numbers of breeding birds were estimated for various sizes and ages of clearcuts, for edge habitat created by the clearcuts, leave strips between clearcuts, and uncut aspen forest (controls). Total numbers of birds were not different among three size classes or five age classes of clearcuts. Total were lower on clearcuts than on edges but not different from controls or leave strips.

Response Of Breeding Birds To Commercial Clearcutting Of Aspen In Southwestern Colorado [Usa], V.E. Scott, G.L. Crouch Aug 1987

Response Of Breeding Birds To Commercial Clearcutting Of Aspen In Southwestern Colorado [Usa], V.E. Scott, G.L. Crouch

Aspen Bibliography

Breeding birds on an aspen forest in southwestern Colorado increased in species diversity after 25% of the timber sale area forest was clearcut in patches of 3 to 20 acres. Bird population density on the forest with clearcuts was not significantly different from that on an uncut forest. Of the 20 species evaluated, six were more and one was less abundant than on the uncut forest.

Aspen Bibliography

Substantial acreages of aspen in the Rocky Mountains are being regenerated by clearcutting; however, there is little information on the quality of the suckers that reestablish in these areas. Whether the new stands will be more or less defective than their predecessors is unknown.

Streamline Herbicide Release Of Red Pine (Pinus Resinosa), L.S. Brooks, B.S. Jones

Aspen Bibliography

Conifer management in the lake States requires the land manager have a diverse set of tools to accomplish the task of plantation establishment and survival. Methods are almost as variable as the soils of the region, which as remnants of ancient seas, volcanos and more recent glaciers. Terrain, soil profile, drainage, aspect and climate are some of the basic factors contributing to the diversity of sites and management regimes practices in the region. Herbicides are an important part of successful conifer management regimes. Approximately 70M forested acres are treated annually in MN, WI and the Upper Peninsula of MI.

Asexual Vs. Sexual Propagation Of Quaking Aspen, Robert B. Campbell Jr. Jan 1984

Asexual Vs. Sexual Propagation Of Quaking Aspen, Robert B. Campbell Jr.

Aspen Bibliography

ABSTRACT: Quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.)

regenerates almost exclusively by root suckers in the

western United States, even though female clones

produce abundant viable seed. During the past decade,

interest in propagating aspen for use as an

ornamental and for revegetation of forest land has

increased. To satisfy these diverse needs for aspen

planting stock, nurserymen have a choice between

sexual and asexual propagation. Criteria for clone

selection, suggestions for root and seed collection

and storage, propagation techniques, and the

advantages of both sexual and asexual propagation are

discussed.
