  1. Ecology, silviculture, and management of Black Hills ponderosa pine

    This paper presents a broad-based synthesis of the general ecology of the ponderosa pine ecosystem in the Black Hills. This synthesis contains information and results of research on ponderosa pine from numerous sources within the Black Hills ecosystem. We discuss the silvical characteristics of ponderosa pine, natural disturbances that govern ecosystem processes,...

  2. The Chilling Optimum of Idaho and Arizona Ponderosa Pine Buds

    Ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) seedlings from Idaho (var. ponderosa) and Arizona (var. scopulorum) grown in a container nursery received optimum chilling [2,010 hr (84 days) of temperatures below 5°C]. While seedlings were in the greenhouse, days required for 50% of the population to break bud were similar for both seed sources...

  3. Effect of a transpiration retardant on survival of planted ponderosa pine.

    Losses of newly planted coniferous seedlings from drought during the critical period when new roots are developing is a continuing problem in many parts of the West. One possible solution frequently suggested to forest managers is to coat the seedling tops with a transpiration inhibitor, usually a waxy substance applied in emulsion form. This research note gives the...

  4. Growth after partial cutting of ponderosa pine on permanent sample plots in eastern Oregon.

    Between the years 1913 and 1938, seven sets of permanent sample plots were established on the Whitman, Malheur, Rogue River, and Deschutes National Forests in eastern and central Oregon to study the results of various methods of selection cutting in old-growth ponderosa pine stands. This report briefly describes these studies and gives statistics on board-foot growth...

  5. Ponderosa pine lumber recovery in north-central Washington.

    Prior to World War 11, the U. S. Forest Service (Region 6) adopted the policy of appraising ponderosa pine timber with a standardized set of lumber grade recovery data obtained from representative pine mills which are known to use average care in manufacturing and marketing. Such data were derived by combining the results of several mill studies made about 20 to 25...

  6. Hydraulic redistribution of soil water during summer drought in two contrasting Pacific Northwest coniferous forests.

    The magnitude of hydraulic redistribution of soil water by roots and its impact on soil water balance were estimated by monitoring time courses of soil water status and multiple depths and root sap flow under drought conditions in a dry ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Dougl. ex Laws) ecosystem and in a moist Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga...

  7. Seasoning and surfacing degrade in kiln-drying ponderosa pine in eastern Washington.

    This report presents results of a study to determine the degrade (loss in volume and value) of ponderosa pine lumber when cut, kiln-dried, and surfaced in accordance with commercial practice. The study measured (1) loss in volume due to culling and trimming surfaced dry lumber because of sawing, seasoning, and surfacing defects; (2) reduction in grade due to seasoning...

  8. Lumber grade and value performance of young-growth ponderosa pine logs at the Challenge Experimental Forest

    Old-growth timber is still the main source of ponderosa pine sawlogs in California, but the proportion of the annual cut from young-growth sawtimber is expected to rise rapidly in the future. The increasing significance of the young-growth resource is particularly apparent in the westside Sierra subregion, where the Challenge Experimental Forest is located. In this...

  10. A statistical approach to estimate O3 uptake of ponderosa pine in a mediterranean climate

    In highly polluted sites, stomatal behavior is sluggish with respect to light, vapor pressure deficit, and internal CO2 concentration (Ci) and poorly described by existing models. Statistical models were developed to estimate stomatal conductance (gs) of 40-year-old ponderosa pine at three sites differing in pollutant exposure for the purpose of...

  11. Seasonality and abundance of truffles from oak woodlands to red fir forests

    Truffles are an important food source for many small mammals in forest ecosystems; however, we know little about the seasonality, abundance, or diversity of the truffle community in the Sierra Nevada. This study examined how truffle abundance and diversity varied between oak woodland, ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa), mixed-conifer, and red fir (

  12. Chemical control of brush in ponderosa pine forests of central Oregon.

    The many acres of forest land that are occupied by brush in central Oregon represent a large-scale waste of timber-growing capacity and a major economic loss to the area. Although large brushfields devoid of tree growth present the most spectacular examples of loss, less obvious but equally important brush problems are common in established timber stands. Brush...
