Book Description
S2Since the advent of the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1933, and especially since World War II, large areas of the eastern hardwood forests have been put under some degree of management. In most stands culls are a real problem. One of the first steps in a management program is to eliminate these worthless trees. Some stands are so cluttered with culls that complete removal of the overstory and regeneration of a new stand may be the best course of action. However, these are extreme cases: usually the treatment can be less drastic, so that a manageable stand is left after cull removal. But after the culls have been removed, and a management program has begun, new cull trees will in time develop. The question is: how much of a job will it be to keep such stands free of culls? A good indication of the size of this job is provided by records for a number of areas on the Fernow Experimental Forest near Parsons, West Virginia, where the development of cull has been studied in the course of experimental selection management practices used by the Northeastern Forest Experiment Station of the U.S. Forest Service.S3.

Cull Development Under All-aged Management of Hardwood Stands
20 Years of Intensive Uneven-aged Management

ISBN:
Category : Forest management
Languages : en
Pages : 16
Book Description
S2In a 1948 study of uneven-aged forest management, with individual tree-selection cuttings, was begun on two 31-acre stands of Appalachian hardwoods in West Virginia. Now, after 20 years, these stands are beginning to show how this kind of management affects growth, yield, and species composition. S3.

Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Forest thinning
Languages : en
Pages : 36
Book Description
S2After more than 20 years of USDA Forest Service research on the growth and yield of hardwoods in the Central States, we can now confidently make recommendations for the management and culture of upland hardwood stands that are predominantly oak. In this paper I will deal with the first 50 years of stand development under one logical thinning policy. S3.
