Mp716: New Forestry In Eastern Spruce-Fir Forests: Principles And Applications To Maine, Robert S. Seymour, Malcolm L. Hunter Jr. Apr 1992

Mp716: New Forestry In Eastern Spruce-Fir Forests: Principles And Applications To Maine, Robert S. Seymour, Malcolm L. Hunter Jr.

Miscellaneous Publications

Eastern North America's spruce-fir forests have a unique ecological and human history which is reflected in their current vegetation, ownership patterns, and forest management practices. Furthermore, there are important differences within the region between the true boreal forest and the sub-boreal Acadian forest; this paper emphasizes the Acadian forest. Applying New Forestry to this region will require a modified approach which we outline by describing three basic principles. First, to provide the landscape context for New Forestry, we propose a triad of forest land allocation in which reserves and plantations would co-exist, surrounded by and embedded within a landscape managed …

Effects Of Fall Fertilizer Applications Of Mitotic Index And Bud Dormancy Of Loblolly Pine Seedlings, Hans Michael Williams, David B. South Apr 1992

Effects Of Fall Fertilizer Applications Of Mitotic Index And Bud Dormancy Of Loblolly Pine Seedlings, Hans Michael Williams, David B. South

Faculty Publications

A series of studies examined the effects of fall fertilization with diammoniwn phosphate (DAP) on mitotic index and bud donnancy [as measured by mean days to budbreak (DBB)] of two half-sib seed sources of loblolly pine. The first study tested different rates of DAP (0, 67, and 202 kg Nlha), the second study compared DAP with ammoniwnnitrate, and the third study examined the effect of different application dates (September 28, October 19, and November 9). An increase in mitotic index of unfertilized seedlings was observed during October and was due to developmental activity which follows initial budset. Differences in mitotic …

Tb141: Nitrogen Fertilization Effects On Growth And Value Of Eastern White Pine Sawlog Stands On Till And Outwash Soils, Robert K. Shepard, Gregory A. Reams Mar 1992

Tb141: Nitrogen Fertilization Effects On Growth And Value Of Eastern White Pine Sawlog Stands On Till And Outwash Soils, Robert K. Shepard, Gregory A. Reams

Technical Bulletins

Diameter growth response functions were developed using data collected from nitrogen fertilization study plots in eastern white pine stands on till and outwash soils. These functions were combined with height measurements and used to evaluate stand volume and value growth. White pine diameter growth functions were developed for application rates of 0, 50, 100, and 200 lb of nitrogen/ac, but only those for the 0 and 100 lb/ac treatments were compared because it was evident that the 100 lb/ac treatment would provide a larger financial return than either 50 or 200 lb/ac. The mean increase in sawtimber volume due to …

B837: New Approaches To Chemical Control Of White Pine Weevil Damage, John B. Dimond, Richard L. Bradbury Mar 1992

B837: New Approaches To Chemical Control Of White Pine Weevil Damage, John B. Dimond, Richard L. Bradbury

Bulletins

There has been little recent research on control of damage by the white pine weevil, and available insecticides have been few and have become obsolete. Tests in Canada suggested that the insect growth-regulating chemical diflubenzeron was effective, and we have successfully repeated those tests in Maine using several formulations of Dimilin and several ground application systems. Aerial trials have not succeeded; the probable reasons for their failure are discussed. We present a general description of the weevil and its damage, approaches to control of damage, and specific recommendations for use of ground applications of Dimilin, which has recently become registered …

Assessment Of Timber Resource Values In Arkansas, Richard A. Williams, Richard A. Kluender Jan 1992

Assessment Of Timber Resource Values In Arkansas, Richard A. Williams, Richard A. Kluender

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

The Arkansas forest lands have long been and will continue to be an important contributor to the state's economy. Today, Arkansas forests cover 52 percent of the land area (Hines and Vissage, 1988). These forests are classified by physiographic characteristics into four timber regions. The timber removed from forested lands provides direct and indirect employment for approximately 40,000 people within the Arkansas manufacturing sector (Kluender and Willett, 1989). This paper describes county and region level information, identifies standing timber volumes, net annual timber growth, net annual timber removals, and associated dollar values. Timber stand data are used to determine areas …
