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.

Effects Of Recreation (Trampling) On The Forest Floor And Associated Streams Of Aspen And Conifer Forests, M.C. Molles, J.R. Gosz, R.G. Cates Jan 1983

Effects Of Recreation (Trampling) On The Forest Floor And Associated Streams Of Aspen And Conifer Forests, M.C. Molles, J.R. Gosz, R.G. Cates

Aspen Bibliography

Heavy trampling significantly reduced the biomass of understory vegetation in aspen stands subject to different management procedures (thinning, fertilization). Light trampling also resulted in lower understory biomass except where it was performed in a fertilized aspen stand which had an understory community dominated by grasses. The grass community appears to be more resistant to trampling. Coverage by the understory was also reduced by both heavy and light trampling in aspen stands. The sparse understory of spruce-fir forests was not significantly changed. Trampling fragmented the forest floor in aspen but not in spruce-fir.


Aspen [Populus Tremuloides] Community Types On The Bridger-Teton National Forest In Western Wyoming [Including A Key With Indicator Species], Andrew P. Youngblood, Walter F. Mueggler Jan 1981

Aspen [Populus Tremuloides] Community Types On The Bridger-Teton National Forest In Western Wyoming [Including A Key With Indicator Species], Andrew P. Youngblood, Walter F. Mueggler

Aspen Bibliography

A classification system is presented for aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) dominated forests on the Bridger-Teton National Forest in western Wyoming. Twenty-six aspen community types are defined and described. A diagnostic key that utilizes indicator plant species is provided for field identification of the community types. Vegetation composition, environment, productivity, relationship to surrounding vegetation, and successional status are discussed. Tables are provided for detailed comparisons.

Aspen Grove Use By Deer, Elk, And Cattle In Southwestern Coniferous Forests, Hudson G. Reynolds Jan 1969

Aspen Grove Use By Deer, Elk, And Cattle In Southwestern Coniferous Forests, Hudson G. Reynolds

Aspen Bibliography

Aspen groves within mixed conifer forests produce more herbaceous understory than adjacent forest. Thinning aspen groves improves herbaceous understory and aspen regeneration. Higher deer and cattle use of aspen groves is associated with the greater abundance of understory vegetation.

Prevernal Leafing Of Aspen In Utah Mountains, W.P. Cottam Jan 1954

Prevernal Leafing Of Aspen In Utah Mountains, W.P. Cottam

Aspen Bibliography

The Rocky Mountain aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx., var. aurea Tidestrom) dominates more mountainous terrain in Utah at elevations between 7,000 and 10,000 feet than any other forest species.
