Effects of Stocking on Site Measurement and Yield of Second-Growth Ponderosa Pine in the Inland Empire (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Effects of Stocking on Site Measurement and Yield of Second-Growth Ponderosa

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book profoundly examines the concept of site in relation to second-growth ponderosa pine and develops a method for growth prediction in these stands. Site evaluation for the forester is a complex process; the author presents a detailed account of the different approaches to site evaluation and the challenges involved, including how site quality is often estimated and the problematic nature of such estimates. The author challenges common assumptions within the field of forestry and provides a new way of understanding how stocking density, or the number of trees in a stand, affects site evaluation and growth prediction for ponderosa pine, a commercially valuable tree species. The author's research reveals that dense stands of ponderosa pine on poor sites can lead to height suppression, affecting site index determination. This detailed study is groundbreaking in its work to quantify the effects of stocking and is indispensable for foresters and ecologists working with ponderosa pine forests.
