Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. This book explores wind damage in the Oregon Coast Range, a pressing issue that has gained prominence after a devastating storm in 1951 caused billions of dollars in losses. The author analyzed data collected from 225 sample plots and eight clear-cut tracts to determine the characteristics of storm damage and identify factors that increase the susceptibility of forests to windthrow. Among the key findings, it was observed that storm winds in the region predominantly originate from the south or southwest, and that cutting boundaries located on the north and east sides of clear-cuts are most vulnerable to damage. Windfall was found to be more severe in areas with high water tables or shallow soils, and trees infected with root rot were especially vulnerable. Additionally, the book delves into the comparative windfirmness of different species, with Douglas-fir and Sitka spruce exhibiting greater resistance than western hemlock. The insights presented in this book are instrumental in advancing our understanding of wind damage in coastal forests and provide valuable guidance for forest management practices, enabling the development of strategies to minimize losses and protect these vital ecosystems. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
