Tree Content And Taper Functions For Loblolly And Slash Pine Trees Planted On Non-Old-Fields In East Texas, J. David Lenhart, Terry L. Hackett, Charlie J. Laman, Thomas J. Wiswell, Jock A. Blackard Jan 1987

Tree Content And Taper Functions For Loblolly And Slash Pine Trees Planted On Non-Old-Fields In East Texas, J. David Lenhart, Terry L. Hackett, Charlie J. Laman, Thomas J. Wiswell, Jock A. Blackard

Faculty Publications

Equations are presented to estimate total or partial stem content in cubic feet and pounds (green or dry) for loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) and slash pine (Pinus elliotti Engelm.) trees planted on non-old-fields in East Texas. Equations are included to estimate the content of the complete tree (stem and branches). In addition, a set of compatible stem taper functions are described. South. j. Appl. For. 11(3):147-151

The Sharpness Of Some Cluster Set Results, D. Rung, Samih Obaid Jan 1987

The Sharpness Of Some Cluster Set Results, D. Rung, Samih Obaid

Faculty Publications

We show that a recent cluster set theorem of Rung is sharp in a certain sense. This is accomplished through the construction of an interpolating sequence whose limit set is closed, totally disconnected and porous. The results also generalize some of Dolzenko's cluster set theorems.

The Need For A New National Court, Douglas D. Mcfarland, Thomas E. Baker Jan 1987

The Need For A New National Court, Douglas D. Mcfarland, Thomas E. Baker

Faculty Publications

By any measure, the Supreme Court is tremendously overburdened. Statistics speak clearly on this point; sometimes they shout. After the caseload relief provided by the Judges' Bill, 4 which was passed in I925 and took effect during the I928 Term, the Supreme Court caseload grew slowly for thirty years. Beginning in the I96os, growth sharply accelerated, and during the I970S and I98os, the numbers exploded.

Effect Of Time And Depth Of Planting On Survival And Growth Of Loblolly Pine (Pinus Taeda L.) Seedlings In Texas, M. Victor Bilan Jan 1987

Effect Of Time And Depth Of Planting On Survival And Growth Of Loblolly Pine (Pinus Taeda L.) Seedlings In Texas, M. Victor Bilan

Faculty Publications

Loblolly pine seedlings were lifted from a nursery bed in two-week intervals (November 4-April 21) and were immediately planted in an open field. Each planting included seedlings planted at the root collar (A), one-half of shoot buried (B) and most of the shoot buried except for the one-inch terminal (C). Average mortality during the first year was 10%, 13% and 16% for the A, B and C planting depths, respectively; the corresponding values for the second year mortality were 2%, 3% and 5%. Average first year mortality by the planting periods ranged - 24% with the highest values for April …

Management And Pest Management Considerations On Droughty Soils: Four Year Results, David Kulhavy, Kenneth G. Watterson, James Kroll, James R. Meeker Jan 1987

Management And Pest Management Considerations On Droughty Soils: Four Year Results, David Kulhavy, Kenneth G. Watterson, James Kroll, James R. Meeker

Faculty Publications

Four year survival of pines on droughty (Typic Quartzips~mments) soils was best for longleaf pine and Terr-Sorb -treated loblolly pine. Pest considerations include town ants and Nantucket pine tip moths on loblolly pine. Untreated loblolly pine had reduced leader and total height growth anH increased tip moth infestations, compared to Terra-Sorb and clay-slurry treated loblolly pine. Soil texture averaged less than eight percent silt and clay combined in the treatment areas.

Estimating The Amount Of Wood Per Acre In Loblolly And Slash Pine Plantations In East Texas, J. David Lenhart Jan 1987

Estimating The Amount Of Wood Per Acre In Loblolly And Slash Pine Plantations In East Texas, J. David Lenhart

Faculty Publications

Two diameter distribution yield prediction systems are presented for loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) and slash pine (Pinus elliotti Engelm.) plantations located on non-old-fields in East Texas. A separate system was developed for each species based on the initial measurement of the East Texas Pine Plantation Research Project permanent plots.

Basic Mathematical Programming Applications To Weed Control In Forestry, Steven H. Bullard, R. H. Richardson, Thomas J. Straka Jan 1987

Basic Mathematical Programming Applications To Weed Control In Forestry, Steven H. Bullard, R. H. Richardson, Thomas J. Straka

Faculty Publications

Many studies document herbicide performance for Heed and hardwood control in forestry. Few studies, hoHever, attemp t to develop optima l application strategies. Stand-level optindzation is presently limited due to lack of groHth and yield information. Forest-level optimization is possible, however, and has great potential to aid in planning forestry weed control prog rams.

State Cost-Share Programs For Nonindustrial Private Forestry Investments, Thomas J. Straka, Steven H. Bullard Jan 1987

State Cost-Share Programs For Nonindustrial Private Forestry Investments, Thomas J. Straka, Steven H. Bullard

Faculty Publications

Fourteen states provide cost-share assistance for approved forestry practices. Host programs are intended to increase forest productivity. Funding is typically from state appropriations and/or taxes on primary forest products. Cost-share rates range up to 80 percent, but most programs are at the 50 percent level. All programs require an approved forest management program. Eligible practices are generally reforestation, site preparation, and timber stand improvement.

Costs And Cost Trends For Forestry Practices In The South, William F. Watson, Thomas J. Straka, Steven H. Bullard Jan 1987

Costs And Cost Trends For Forestry Practices In The South, William F. Watson, Thomas J. Straka, Steven H. Bullard

Faculty Publications

Cost estimates of practicing forestry in the South during 1986 and cost changes during the 1952-1986 period are presented in this report. Albert C. Worrell reported the original cost study in Forest Farmer in May 1953. His work was updated by James G. Yoho and Robert B. Fish in the November 1961 issue of Forest Farmer. Other revisions include James G. Yoho, George F . Dutrow, and James Moak (Forest Farmer, 1971); James Moak and Jim Kucera (Forest Farmer, 1975); James Moak, James Kucera, and W.F. Watson (Forest Farmer Manual, 1977); James Moak, W.F. Watson, and Paul Van Deusen (Forest …

Spoil Banks: Effects On A Coastal Marsh Water-Level Regime, Erick M. Swenson, R. Eugene Turner Jan 1987

Spoil Banks: Effects On A Coastal Marsh Water-Level Regime, Erick M. Swenson, R. Eugene Turner

Faculty Publications

Above- and below-ground water-level fluctuations were measured in the marshes south of New Orleans, Louisiana, between November 1982 and December 1983. The purpose of the program was to defme the basic marsh water-level regime and to investigate how canal spoil banks may influence the water-level regime. Two study areas were used: (1) a control area, defined as a section of marsh with unrestricted hydrologic connection to an adjacent bayou; and, (2) a partially-impounded area, defined as an area with limited hydrologic connection to an adjacent bayou due to the presence of dredged canal spoil banks. Data sources included marsh water …

A New Theory Of Assent-Based Liability Emerging Under The Guise Of Promissory Estoppel: An Explanation And Defense, Juliet P. Kostritsky Jan 1987

A New Theory Of Assent-Based Liability Emerging Under The Guise Of Promissory Estoppel: An Explanation And Defense, Juliet P. Kostritsky

Faculty Publications

This Article will demonstrate that these apparently divergent approaches (bargain and promissory estoppel) share unifying elemental criteria that situate them all squarely within an assent-based theory of enforceability. This Article differs from scholarship that depicts promissory estoppel as having a different conceptual or theoretical basis for enforcement. This Article posits that promissory estoppel, together with other orthodox doctrines, are merely substitute doctrinal methods for showing the assent required for an enforceable consensual exchange.

Securing Justice: A Response To William Bradford Reynolds, Michael A. Middleton Jan 1987

Securing Justice: A Response To William Bradford Reynolds, Michael A. Middleton

Faculty Publications

I doubt that William Bradford Reynolds would disagree that the self evident truths the Framers of the Declaration of Independence spoke about are as applicable today in the 1980's as they were over 200 years ago. I also doubt that Mr. Reynolds would disagree that despite the fact that black people were not considered human beings when the Constitution was framed, the fourteenth amendment to that great document was intended to bring them within the ambit of its protections. On these two basic propositions, I suspect, Mr. Reynolds and I would agree. Beyond that however, Mr. Reynolds advances a fundamentally …
