Book Description
In 2008, a Working Group that included British Columbia government staff (researchers, stewardship foresters, and wildlife habitat experts), a research consultant, and industry foresters was formed in the Cariboo Region of south-central British Columbia to determine how existing research concerning conifer#x13;broadleaf competitive relationships could be used to suggest change to free-growing guidelines for that region. The objective was to adjust free-growing criteria concerning broadleaf tree presence in coniferous plantations while maintaining consistency with biological thresholds for conifer growth that had been determined by local research. ...

Lodgepole Pine Response to Aspen Removal in Variable Radii in the SBSdw2 Variant Near Williams Lake, B.C.
Author: Teresa A. Newsome
Publisher: British Columbia, Forest Science Program
ISBN:
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 40
Book Description
Mixed forests of lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta var. latifolia Engelm.) and trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) are common throughout interior British Columbia, particularly in north and central areas of the province. In the Cariboo-Chilcotin area of the Southern Interior Forest Region, aspen commonly regenerates along with planted and natural lodgepole pine in the Sub-Boreal Spruce (SBS), Interior Douglas-fir (IDF), Sub-Boreal Pine-Spruce (SBPS), and Interior Cedar-Hemlock (ICH) zones. Historically, aspen has been regarded as a "weed" that competes with conifers, but silviculturists now recognize that there are many benefits to maintaining a broadleaf component within stands. A study was established in 1994 in the SBSdw2 variant of the Cariboo-Chilcotin region of the Southern Interior Forest Region to investigate the effects of removing aspen in 50 or 100 cm radii around crop lodgepole pine versus broadcast removal or no treatment. The primary objective of the study was to assess whether the free-growing criterion (current in 1994), which specified that no overtopping vegetation could be present within a 1 m radius around crop trees, was appropriate in pine-aspen stands, or whether a 50 cm radius zone would be adequate.

Forest Hydrology
Author: Devendra Amatya
Publisher: CABI
ISBN: 1780646607
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
Forests cover approximately 26% of the world's land surface area and represent a distinct biotic community. They interact with water and soil in a variety of ways, providing canopy surfaces which trap precipitation and allow evaporation back into the atmosphere, thus regulating how much water reaches the forest floor as through fall, as well as pull water from the soil for transpiration. The discipline "forest hydrology" has been developed throughout the 20th century. During that time human intervention in natural landscapes has increased, and land use and management practices have intensified. The book will be useful for graduate students, professionals, land managers, practitioners, and researchers with a good understanding of the basic principles of hydrology and hydrologic processes.
