Frost Damage In Poplar On The Prairies, Harry Zalasky Jan 1976

Frost Damage In Poplar On The Prairies, Harry Zalasky

Aspen Bibliography

Frost cankers in poplar are freeze-killed areas of bark and wood around which woody calluses develop and form buris and frost ribs. Frost dieback is a freeze-killed segment of the stem at the base, tip, or mid-portion of a branch or leader. It may or may not enhance natural pruning or poplar branches depending on whether the basal parts are damaged or alive and able to form abscission layers. In addition to abscission, low temperature affects increment, growth patterns, and vigor of poplar. Tree become stunted from persistent leader dieback. Suckers, crooks, and sweeps also characterize many stands of poplar. …

Aspen Potential - A Land Manager's Viewpoint, Bruce B. Hronek Jan 1976

Aspen Potential - A Land Manager's Viewpoint, Bruce B. Hronek

Aspen Bibliography

From a land manager's viewpoint, the management of aspen has been lacking. However, the potentials of aspen as a viable and meaningful species that will contribute much to the forest environment and economics is both possible and practical.

Kiln Drying Characteristics Of Studs From Rocky Mountain Aspen And Wisconsin Aspen, James C. Ward Jan 1976

Kiln Drying Characteristics Of Studs From Rocky Mountain Aspen And Wisconsin Aspen, James C. Ward

Aspen Bibliography

Aspen studs, 7/4-inch thick, from Rocky Mountain and Wisconsin trees will dry to required moisture contents within similar periods of time under conventional and high temperature kiln schedules. Bacterial wetwood occurs in both Rocky Mountain and Wisconsin aspen and causes severe drying problems from wet pockets, collapse, honeycomb, and ring failure. Presorting green lumber is a suggested solution to the wetwood problem.

Understory Production Not Predictable From Aspen Basal Area Or Density, K.E. Severson, J.J. Kranz Jan 1976

Understory Production Not Predictable From Aspen Basal Area Or Density, K.E. Severson, J.J. Kranz

Aspen Bibliography

Analysis of effects of aspen basal area and density on production of understory vegetation revealed no useful predictive relationships using the model log Y = a + bX. However, as the proportion of ponderosa pine basal area increased in aspen-pine stands, understory production declined in a predictable manner. Root biomass, total biomass, and/or growth rate of aspen may be more closely related to understory production than measures of aspen overstory.

Aspen Mortality In Rocky Mountain Campgrounds, Thomas E. Hinds Jan 1976

Aspen Mortality In Rocky Mountain Campgrounds, Thomas E. Hinds

Aspen Bibliography

Aspens die from canker disease infections as a result of mechanical injuries to the live bark inflicted by thoughtless campers. Dead trees usually are cut to reduce camper hazard. Aspen loss is related to campground age. A desirable aspen-type camp unit can be degraded to a treeless site of grass, forbs, and shrubs within 10 to 20 years. The management of aspen campgrounds must be altered if the resource is to be maintained.

Problems And Opportunities Associated With Aspen Logging Systems, Wendell H. Groff Jan 1976

Problems And Opportunities Associated With Aspen Logging Systems, Wendell H. Groff

Aspen Bibliography

The opportunities in equipment selection, production ranges and specialization available to a logger producing volume from a coniferous species in many cases are not available to an aspen logger. The logger must identify the limiting factors and design a logging system accordingly.

Bird Populations Of Aspen Forests In Western North America, J.A. Douglas Flack Jan 1976

Bird Populations Of Aspen Forests In Western North America, J.A. Douglas Flack

Aspen Bibliography

The patterning of populations of plants and animals is probably the result of selection over time of organisms according to their individual physiological tolerances, behavioral adaptations to an environmental complex, and geographical availability (Gleason 1926).

Aspen Resource In The Southwest, Darrell W. Crawford Jan 1976

Aspen Resource In The Southwest, Darrell W. Crawford

Aspen Bibliography

There is a relatively large source of unused aspen in the Southwest. If markets can be developed, there are challenging opportunities to utilize more of this fiber. Most aspen in the Southwest is classified in the marginal component because of steep slopes, accessibility and low market values. To meet the logging constraints of this component is a real challenge to prospective purchasers. However, commercial opportunities are feasible on the Carson, Santa Fe, Apache and Kaibab National Forests.
