Download Free Manual Brushing For Forest Vegetation Management In British Columbia Book in PDF and EPUB Free Download. You can read online Manual Brushing For Forest Vegetation Management In British Columbia and write the review.

Explores the factors that influence the utility of manual brushing, including the response of target species to manual treatment, the growth response of the crop trees, damage to the crop trees and administrative constraints.
Summarizes information on the effectiveness of several brushing treatments used for vegetation management in British Columbia.
Presenting a summary of the development in boreal forest management, this book provides a progressive vision for some of the world's northern forests. It includes a selection of chapters based on the research conducted by the Sustainable Forest Management Network across Canada. It includes a number of case histories.
In August 20-23, 2004, a conference was held in Kamilche, WA, with the title S2Productivity of Western Forests: A Forest Products Focus. S3 The meeting brought together researchers and practitioners interested in discussing the economic and biological factors influencing wood production and value. One of the underlying assumptions of the meeting organizers was that management activities would be practiced within a framework of sustaining or improving site productivity; thus, several papers deal with methods to protect or improve productivity or discuss new studies designed to test the effects of various practices. This proceedings includes 11 papers based on oral presentations at the conference, 3 papers based on posters and 2 papers describing the Fall River and Matlock Long-Term Site Productivity study areas visited on the field tours. The papers cover subjects on forest harvesting activities, stand establishment, silviculture, site productivity, remote sensing, and wood product technologies.
Summarizes data collected at an experimental forest site near Dawson Creek, British Columbia, on which three vegetation management treatments had been applied. Two herbicides, glyphosate and hexazinone, were aerially applied to two plots; the third plot was an untreated control site. Treated and control areas were cleared of all vegetation and debris in the winter following treatment, and planted the next May with white spruce seedlings. The sites were measured 12 years after treatment to determine whether the treatments had any lasting effects on the growth and development of the planted spruce. Separate vegetation assessments were also completed to determine species diversity and percentage of cover of forage species. Management implications of the results are discussed.
