Ratios For Estimating Logging Residue In The Pacific Northwest Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Ratios for Estimating Logging Residue in the Pacific Northwest Ratios are presented for estimating the volume of logging residue for any loca tion in Idaho, Washington, and Oregon. They show cubic-foot volume of logging residue per board feet of timber harvested and per acre harvested. Tables show gross and net volumes, with and without bark. The volumes of live and dead and cull residue at the time of harvest are also given. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Logging Residue in the Pacific Northwest: Characteristics Affecting Utilization Information on the characteristics of logging residue in Idaho, Washington, and Oregon is presented. Tables show volume by diameter and length, number of pieces per acre, percent of residue that is sound, distribution by slope and distance to road, and average proportion of bark. Results are shown for 19 strata (harvest method by geographic area and owner). Keywords: Residue measurements, slash utilization, Pacific Northwest.

Excerpt from Estimators and Characteristics of Logging Residue in Montana Ratios are presented for estimating volume and characteristics of logging residue in Montana. They relate cubic foot volume of residue to thousand board feet of timber harvested and to acres harvested. Tables show gross and net volume of residue, with and without bark, by diameter and length classes; by number of pieces per acre; by percent soundness; by product potential; and by degree of slope and distance to roads. Keywords: Residue estimation, resi due measurements, slash, volume estimation, slash utilization, residue management, Montana.

Excerpt from Logging Residue in Southeast Alaska Detailed information on logging residues in southeast Alaska is provided as input to economic and technical assessments of its use for products or site amenities. Two types of information are presented. Ratios are presented that can be used to gener ate an estimate, based on volume or acres harvested, of the cubic-foot volume of residue for any particular area of southeast Alaska. Separate ratios are given for live and dead or cull material, and for net and gross volume. Tables display per-acre residue volume by various characteristics that might affect either use or disposition. These tables show net or gross volume, or both, by diameter and length classes, by origin, by percentage of soundness, by degree of slopes and distance to roads, and by number of pieces of residue per acre. Keywords: Southeast Alaska, logging residue, slash, residue estimation, fuel wood, residue management. A large volume of woody biomass has traditionally remained on site after logging in southeast Alaska. Interest is growing in this material for energy and conventional products, as well as for its environmental attributes. A great deal of information is needed on the volume and characteristics of residue to adequately address these options. Existing sources were out of date and did not provide the information needed to make site-specific assessments for southeast Alaska. This study provides the capability to estimate the volume and characteristics of logging residue throughout southeast Alaska. This study had two objectives. The first was to develop ratios for use in estimating the volume of logging residue for any area in southeast Alaska. These ratios relate the quantity of residue to timber harvest volume or harvested acres. Study results show, for example. An average net volume of logging residue (wood only) of 79 to 109 cubic feet per thousand board feet of harvest and an average gross volume ranging from 125 to 158 cubic feet per thousand board feet of harvest. The second objective was to provide data characterizing logging residue in ways that might affect its utilization for various products or its management for environmental considerations.
