Large Scalps Improve Survival and Growth of Planted Conifers in Central Idaho

摘要

Responses of three species of conifers were assessed in a large clearcut in central Idaho. Survival and height growth of Douglas-fir, lodgepole pine, and ponderosa pine for 5 years after planting were related to 2-ft and 4-ft scalps and dozer strips on a Pseudotsuga menziesii var. glauca/Berberis repens habitat type.
