Book excerpt: "As the forestry landbase shrinks and demand for wood increases, improving productivity of commercial forest stands becomes more important. Because of its commercial value and common occurrence, lodgepole pine is a candidate for productivity improvement. Regenerating lodgepole pine forests are often characterized by very high density and slow growth, limiting their value. Therefore, a variety of precommercial thinning treatments have been tried at long-term installations, which provide valuable data to evaluate projections from existing growth and yield models. In this report, we evaluate the stand growth and yield from different thinning treatments in long-term silviculture installations in the Upper Foothills (Gregg Burn and Teepee Pole Creek) and Lower Foothills (MacKay) subregions of Alberta. The MacKay installation was established in 1954 with the objective of determining whether precommercial thinning of lodgepole pine could improve merchantable volume and quality at a young age, and in turn shorten rotation and increase annual allowable cuts. The Gregg Burn and Teepee Pole Creek installations were established in the 1960s to assess the response of tree and stand growth to different juvenile spacing treatments, with densities ranging from 500 to 8 000 stems per hectare. Tree growth and survival in these installations are measured periodically to evaluate the effect of different intensities of thinning on the growth and yield of the lodgepole pine crop trees. To provide a decadal update to previous measurements and evaluation, published in 2006, we examined total and merchantable volumes in these installations using the most recent data (2011-2014). Our analysis found that thinning is unlikely to increase yields; however, if thinning is carried out for other reasons, judicious choice of a thinning regime can avoid a yield loss. Thinning to 2 000-3 000 stems per hectare appears to be optimal, maximizing the positive effect on tree growth without major losses in volume"--Abstract, p. iii.

Book Synopsis Long-term Lodgepole Pine Silviculture Trials in Alberta by : James Douglas Stewart
Download or read book Long-term Lodgepole Pine Silviculture Trials in Alberta written by James Douglas Stewart and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long-term data from established field experiments are required to properly evaluate different silvicultural options and to provide the basis for development and validation of growth models. Such data are available from a series of thinning and fertilization field studies established between 1941 and 1984 in lodgepole pine stands in the foothills of Alberta. These field sites span a wide range of ecological conditions and geographic locations. This report describes the locations and site characteristics of these these studies, their establishment histories and objectives, their experimental designs and treatments, and their results up to 2005.

This book was released on 2024-03-27 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compensatory growth (CG) is defined as a change in growth rate (usually positive) following a period of reduced biomass or slowed growth due to some perturbation (e.g. nutrient deprivation, parasite load, tissue damage, or natural/anthropogenic disturbance). The phenomenon occurs throughout the plant and animal kingdoms, and while it is primarily observed in species with short lifespans, it has also been detected in longer-living organisms such as trees. CG occurs at the individual level as a variable life history trait but has the potential to impact the performance of whole populations and communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1941, the Canadian Forestry Service established a commercial thinning trial in a stand dominated by 77-year-old lodgepole pine near Kananaskis, Alberta. Sample plots established in 1949 were re-measured in 1999, and this report presents the results of these measurements along with some earlier results. The results compare tree diameter growth & net periodic total volume increment between thinned plots and control (unthinned) plots. Management implications of the results are discussed.
