  1. Managing Vegetation on Peat-Sand Filter Beds for Wastewater Disposal

    Five species of grass, one sedge, and cattail were grown on a peat-sand filter bed irrigated with sewage effluent. Yields, uptake of nitrogen and phosphorus, and lodging problems were determined for all species when grown to various heights ranging from 5 to 75 cm.

  2. Impacts of various intensities of site preparation on Piedmont soils after 2 years

    Six levels of site preparation were applied to replicated 0.8-hectare plots at the Hitchiti Experimental Forest on the Piedmont Plateau in central Georgia. Treatments ranged in intensity from handclearing to shearing and chopping to rootraking and disking with fertilization and herbicides. Soils were sampled before treatment applications and after 1 and 2 years....

  3. Forest ecology and management

    Over a period of 16 years, unburned longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.) pole stands grew an average of 27% more volume than similar stands regularly burned. Treatments included biennial burns in winter, spring, and summer plus an unburned check, each of which was combined with three supplemental treatments, namely, initial herbicide injection of...

  4. Understanding sucrose metabolism and growth in a developing sweetgum plantation.

    Stem diameter growth of 9-year-old sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua) trees was measured and related with the activity of sucrose synthase (SS), an enzyme that has been associated with carbon sink strength in agriculture crops and tree seedlings. In 1984, 10 sweetgum seedlings were transplanted to control plots and plots amended with sewage sludge or nitorgen and...

  5. Forest site preparation effects on Georgia Piedmont soils over a 10-year period

    More than a quarter-million acres of forest lands in the Southeast are site prepared annually using mechanical treatments with little to no information on long-term soil sustainability outcomes. The objectives of this rcscarch was to gain a first-view of the soil changes after the following integrated site preparation (SP) treatments: none (cheek), chainsaw felling,...
