Spruce seedlings achieve budset and an endodormant state in late summer, coastal Douglas-fir in early fall, while loblolly pine achieves a less endodormant state with a limited amount of mitotic activity. Natural chilling during the fall reduces days to budbreak (DBB) and increases freezing tolerance, with northern species achieving greater freezing tolerance. Although root growth potential (RGP) in some years may increase from early fall to mid-winter, this trend does not always occur. Chilling hours and/or freezing tolerance status is used to initiate storage of Douglas-fir and spruce seedlings but there is no proven attribute to make the lifting decision for loblolly pine. When properly hardened, all species can be cooler stored to meet lift/store requirements of a few months, though fall lifted interior spruce seedlings are typically freezer stored for up to six months. Lengthy storage can cause declines in DBB, freezing tolerance, RGP, and carbohydrate reserves. Douglas-fir and interior spruce seedlings require an appropriate length of fall acclimation, typically including chilling, to develop a level of hardiness for lengthy storage and high survival after outplanting. Loblolly pine seedlings benefit from chilling, though non-chilled, hardened seedlings may exhibit high survival after four weeks of cooler storage. Each species has a unique fall acclimation pattern making it difficult to define universal culture practices across all regional forest regeneration programs.","PeriodicalId":335489,"journal":{"name":"The Open Forest Science Journal","volume":"74-75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132756093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Spruce is an ecologically plastic, cold-tolerant species that presents various growth forms. Moreover, its growth is further affected by stressful environment factors, including low temperatures, snowless winters, and strong winds. Thus, the morphological variability of individual trees can be due to climate-driven transformations, and represents a manifestation of biological plasticity. It was found that multi-stemmed clusters were formed by the rooting of ground- level branches of formerly single-stemmed trees. Age analysis performed for 771 samples taken from 70 tree clusters demonstrated that mass rooting of branches started in the beginning of the 20th century and is ongoing. Dendroclimatic analysis did not demonstrate any significant links between the dynamics of stem formation and climatic data. The average biological age of mass rooting coincides with the period at which soil nutrition would have declined severely and the main root system would have become non-functional. This research shows that dendrochronological research can be used to help understand the ecophysiology of plants.","PeriodicalId":335489,"journal":{"name":"The Open Forest Science Journal","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130169190","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Tree-ring cores were collected in five mixed silver fir forests at low and high-elevation sites of the Apennines range in Tuscany and Marches. Regular and moving correlations functions were applied to tree-ring width series and monthly climate gridded data. Principal component analysis displayed groups of chronologies with similar growth patterns, discriminating for altitude and geographical location. Climate-growth relationships showed the positive influence of late-spring and summer precipitations and the negative effect of summer temperatures. Stands growing within the optimal altitude range for the species showed a positive and a decreasing negative influence of spring and summer temperatures, respectively. At the highest site (1375 m asl) the positive effect of previous year spring-summer precipitation and summer temperature of both previous and current year became scarce or null. Results suggest that the shifting influence of summer precipitation on tree-rings growth from July to August of the previous year is a possible response of silver fir to the significant reduction of spring precipitation and general temperature increase throughout the 20th century.","PeriodicalId":335489,"journal":{"name":"The Open Forest Science Journal","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125865324","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aimed to detect possible common pattern of structure and growth dynamics of pine regeneration in treeline sites. Over 700 black pine samples growing above the timberline were sampled at four sites in the limestone Apennines of Marche and Abruzzo regions. For each tree we measured basal stem diameter, total height and annual height increments; a wooden core was extracted from the stem near the ground for cambial age determination and detection of intra-annual density fluctuations (IADF). We used multivariate analysis to assess patterns of the main tree structural attributes and dendrochronological analysis for age structure and growth dynamics. Expansion of European black pine started about 35 years ago featuring similar germination peaks, tree structure and growth patterns in all the sites. IADF have similar frequencies and peaks and occur in mid-late summer. These similar patterns occur at all sites besides the local differences and grazing histories suggesting the presence of an overall climate driver.","PeriodicalId":335489,"journal":{"name":"The Open Forest Science Journal","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130036605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Sierra Nevada population is very small, genetically distinct, and isolated. Mixed-severity wildland fire is assumed to be a potentially greater threat than logging, and land managers are conducting large-scale forest thinning operations under the hypothesis that it is needed to reduce fire spread and severity. However, the relationship between fishers and fire has not been tested previously. I investigated this question with teams of dogs specially trained to detect the scat of Pacific fishers and, thus, their concentration of movements and habitat use. All scat samples were genetically verified. In surveys on the Kern Plateau in the southwestern Sierra Nevada, within unlogged post-fire forests with mixed-severity effects from large fires, and in unburned forests, I found that fishers selected Sierran mixed-conifer forests in both post-fire and unburned areas, and selected closed-canopied, mature/old forest in unburned forests, as well as burned forests that had this structure in the pre-fire condition. When fishers were near burned/unburned edges, they selected the within-fire side. Fishers used dense, mature/old forest that experienced moderate/high-severity fire at the same level as unburned dense, mature/old forest, and both males and females were found deep inside large fires—several km from the fire perimeter. These results indicate that fishers may benefit from the structural complexity of such post-fire habitat for foraging. This suggests mixed-severity wildland fire could be restored through managed wildland fire in these forests.","PeriodicalId":335489,"journal":{"name":"The Open Forest Science Journal","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115399005","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
