The objectives of this report were to describe the treatments applied in a Douglas-fir spacing study carried out on the Alex Fraser Research Forest of the University of British Columbia; and, to access the initial effect of these treatments on the residual stand structures.
The Forest Vegetation Simulator (FVS) is a suite of computer modeling tools for predicting the long-term effects of alternative forest management actions. FVS was developed in the early 1980s and is used throughout the United Sates and British Columbia. The Third FVS conference, held February 13-15, 2007, in Fort Collins Colorado, contains 20 papers. They describe the use of FVS on the stand and landscape scale, and to analyze fuels management in the presence of insects and fire. Several papers compare FVS predictions of the effects of insects and disease to field measurements. FVS is continually evolving and improving in technology and capability to meet the needs of its ever increasing user community. Papers describe new methods for data acquisition and preparation for input to FVS, new economic analysis capabilities within FVS, new methods for simulating forest regeneration, new developments in calculating growth and mortality, and future plans for incorporating the effects of climate change in model simulations.
Workshop was organized to provide researchers with a forum to share research results, identify gaps, and set priorities for the future. Proceedings provide managers of dry Douglas-fir forests with an accessible source of information about the forest type.
This document provides a brief, detailed summary of each presentation in the conference of Complex stand structures and associated dynamics: measurement indices and modelling approaches, in three-page popular summary format. Specifically, short, unedited syntheses were supplied by each author that summarize the essential information of the underlying research study, including scope, objectives, methods, results, references, and major conclusions. The primary purpose is to document the research studies presented for the benefit of the forest science and management communities and foster onsite discussion among conference participants.--Document.
