Book Description
Excerpt from Influence of Tree and Site Factors on Western Redcedar's Response to Release: A Modeling Analysis Western redcedar usually grows in association with other tree species. Such as western white pine (pinus monticola Dougl. Ex. D. Don). Douglas-fir (pseudotsuga menziesii [mirb.] Franco), western larch (larix ccci dentalis grand fir (abies grandis [dougl.] ponderosa pine (pinus ponderosa Dougl. Ex Laws). Western hemlock [tsuga heterophylla [raf] and Iodgepole pine (pinus contorta Western redcedar is one of the most shade-tolerant species grow ing in the cedar-hemlock ecosystems of the Northern Rocky Mountains. It is capable of reproducing and becoming established under the shade of faster growing seral species. The prolific nature of its seed production often leads to regeneration of thousands of seedlings per acre. Creating dense, overstocked. Slow-growing stands.

The Effects of Thinning and Similar Stand Treatments on Fire Behavior in Western Forests
Author: Western Redcedar Site Index Models for the Interior of British Columbia

ISBN:
Category : Site index (Forestry)
Languages : en
Pages : 36
Book Description
This paper develops models to predict top height, site index, and years to breast height for western redcedar, Thuja plicata, on interior British Columbia sites. Stem analysis & ecological data were collected from 46 plots in the interior cedar-hemlock and interior Douglas-fir biogeoclimatic zones. Four site trees were stem analyzed from each plot. These data were converted into top height-breast height age, growth intercept, years to breast height, and site index data. A site index, growth intercept, and years to breast height model were then fit to the data.
Fundamentals of Tree Ring Research

Book Description
Tree-ring dating (dendrochronology) is a method of scientific dating based on the analysis of tree-ring growth patterns. As author James Speer notes, trees are remarkable bioindicators. Although there are other scientific means of dating climatic and environmental events, dendrochronology provides the most reliable of all paleorecords. Dendrochronology can be applied to very old trees to provide long-term records of past temperature, rainfall, fire, insect outbreaks, landslides, hurricanes, and ice storms--to name only a few events. This comprehensive text addresses all of the subjects that a reader who is new to the field will need to know and will be a welcome reference for practitioners at all levels. It includes a history of the discipline, biological and ecological background, principles of the field, basic scientific information on the structure and growth of trees, the complete range of dendrochronology methods, and a full description of each of the relevant subdisciplines. Individual chapters address the composition of wood, methods of field and laboratory study, dendroarchaeology, dendroclimatology, dendroecology, dendrogeomorphology, and dendrochemistry. The book also provides thorough introductions to common computer programs and methods of statistical analysis. In the final chapter, the author describes "frontiers in dendrochronology," with an eye toward future directions in the field. He concludes with several useful appendixes, including a listing of tree and shrub species that have been used successfully by dendrochronologists. Throughout, photographs and illustrations visually represent the state of knowledge in the field.
