Silviculture and Ecology of Western U.S. Forests, Second Edition, is a text for students, professional forest managers, and scientists that summarizes both early and contemporary research and principles relevant to the silviculture, ecology, and multi-purpose management of western U.S. forests. Based on its authors' significant experiences and contributions in the field, as well as nearly 1000 additional references, Silviculture and Ecology remains the only text that focuses on silviculture in western U.S. forests--providing background and basis for current biological, ecological, and managerial practices. Detailed chapters on fire, tree growth, and management of complex stand structures, as well as shrub ecology and an ecosystem framework, are bolstered in the second edition. A new series of case studies illustrates how silvicultural practices are developed and modified as forests grow and new challenges and opportunities occur. Contemporary silvicultural practices, particularly pertaining to fire use, vegetation management, soil fertility, and fertilization have been updated, and modifications that enhance standard practices are demonstrated throughout the text. In this comprehensive reference, readers entering the field will come to understand the significance of carefully managing forests by conscious design, and experienced silviculturists will benefit from the edition's up-to-date information, providing forest users with a greater range of ecosystem services and consumable products alike." 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Forests and forestry|zWest (U.S.)|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2009125462 650 0 Forest management|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects /sh85050603|zWest (U.S.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85146140-781 650 0 Forest ecology|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85050575|zWest (U.S.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85146140-781 650 7 Forests and forestry.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 932632 650 7 Forest management.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 932231 650 7 Forest ecology.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/932104 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Maguire, Douglas A.|q(Douglas Alan),|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n90696280|eauthor. 700 1 Harrington, Timothy B.|q(Timothy Brian),|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no95054386|eauthor. 700 1 Bailey, John D.,|d1961-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n2015012535|eauthor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aTappeiner, J.C.
