What Is Treesearch?
Treesearch is an online system for locating and delivering publications by
Research and Development scientists in the USDA Forest Service. Publications
in the collection include research monographs published by the agency as well
as papers written by our scientists but published by other organizations in their
journals, conference proceedings, or books. Research results behind these
publications have been peer-reviewed to ensure the best quality of science.
Searching for
Publications
Treesearch lets you search
listings by author, keyword,
originating station, or date.
Keyword searches examine
both the title and abstract.
Viewing
and Printing
Publications
Once you have selected
a publication, you can
view and print the entire
publication online. All
publications listed in
Treesearch have their
full text available online,
usually in Adobe’s
Portable Document Format
(PDF). In some cases, the
publications have been
scanned from the original using optical character recognition, a process that
can result in errors. For this reason, some publications offer two PDF versions,
a compact file with captured text plus a larger “pristine” version in which text
is represented graphically. Either way, your computer will need Adobe Acrobat
Reader installed to view and print the document. If you need this free plug-in,
see Adobe’s Acrobat Reader download page at http://www.adobe.com/products/

Forest managers are seeking practical guidance on
how to adapt their current practices and, if necessary, their management goals, in response to climate
change. Science-management collaboration was
initiated on national forests in eastern Washington
where resource managers showed a keen interest
in science-based options for adapting to climate
change at a 2-day workshop. Scientists and managers reviewed current climate change science and
identified resources vulnerable to expected climate
change. Vulnerabilities related to vegetation and
habitat management included potential reductions
in forest biodiversity and low forest resilience to
changing disturbance regimes. The vulnerabilities
related to aquatic and infrastructure resources
included changing water quality and quantity, the
risk to roads and other facilities from changes to
hydrologic regimes, and the potential loss of at-risk
aquatic species and habitats. Managers then worked
in facilitated groups to identify adaptations that
could be implemented through management and
planning to reduce the vulnerability of key resources
to climate change. The identified adaptations were
grouped under two major headings: Increasing
Ecological Resiliency to Climate Change, and
Increasing Social and Economic Resiliency to
Climate Change. The information generated from
the science-management collaborative represents an
initial and important step in identifying and prioritizing tangible steps to address climate change in
forest management. Next would be the development
of detailed implementation strategies that address
the identified management adaptations.

Adaptation: planning for climate change and

Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Research Station.
6 p.
National forest managers are charged with tackling
the effects of climate change on the natural
resources under their care. The Forest Service
National Roadmap for Responding to Climate
Change and the Climate Change Performance Scorecard require managers to make significant progress
in addressing climate change by 2015. To help
land managers meet this challenge, Forest Service
scientists conducted three case studies on national
forests and adjacent national parks and documented
a wide range of scientific issues and solutions. They
summarized the scientific foundation for climate
change adaptation and made the information accessible to land managers by creating a climate change
adaptation guidebook and Web portal. Case study
teams discovered that collaboration among scientists
and land managers is crucial to adaptation planning,
as are management plans targeted to the particular
ecosystem conditions and management priorities of
each region. Many current management practices
are consistent with climate change adaptation goals.
Because timely implementation is critical, strategies
are in development at the national level to speed the
implementation of science-based climate change
adaptation processes in national forests throughout
the country.
Keywords: Climate change, federal land
management, adaptation.

Portland, OR: U.S. Department of Agriculture,
Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Research Station.
37 p.
To increase timber production and manage other
forest resource values, some land managers have
undertaken logging debris and vegetation control
treatments after forest harvest. We explored the
roles of clearcutting on plant community composition and structure at three sites where logging debris
was dispersed, piled, or removed and vegetation was
annually treated or not treated with herbicides for
5 years. Without vegetation control, a competitive
relation was identified between exotic and native
ruderal (i.e., disturbance-associated) species.
When exotic ruderal cover changed by 4 percent,
native ruderal cover changed by 10 percent in the
opposite direction. This relation was independent
of site, but site was important in determining
the overall dominance of ruderals. Five annual
vegetation control treatments increased Douglas-fir
(Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) growth, but
decreased richness and cover of other species at the
rate of one species per 10-percent reduction in cover.
Debris treatment effects were small and found on
only one site.
Keywords: Clearcut, invasive species, exotic species,
community diversity, community structure.

6 p.
Beargrass (Xerophyllum tenax (Pursh) Nutt.) is a
source of food, habitat, and raw material for animals, pollinating insects, and people across its range
in the Western United States. The plant has long
been used by Native Americans, who harvest the
leaves for basketry and other crafts. More recently,
beargrass has become an important component of
international trade for the commercial floral greens
industry. Changes in natural and anthropogenic
disturbances are occurring within the range of
beargrass, including fire frequency and severity,
plant harvest intensity, and land use. This report
documents how changes in disturbance patterns
might affect beargrass and its associated ecosystem
diversity, identifies gaps in knowledge or potential
conflicts in human use, and records quantitative and
qualitative information on the natural and cultural
history of beargrass. We list and discuss some key
sociocultural, environmental, and economic issues
that relate to managing beargrass and the forested
ecosystems in which it grows. These include a
lack of information on the main factors affecting
beargrass reproduction and persistence, including
the importance of pollinators and light environment on plant fitness; differences in desired leaf
properties sought by traditional and commercial
harvesters; and inconsistent documentation on the
volume and properties of harvested beargrass in
total and by harvester group. Future research needs
include advancing knowledge of the effects of
human and natural disturbances on the plant and its
habitat, including silvicultural practices, leaf harvest
practices, and fire (both prescribed and wild).
People have long valued mature western redcedar
for its strong, lightweight wood that is rot-resistant.
The species has cultural importance for Northwest
tribes who use the tree’s bark and roots as well
as the wood. Redcedar is very shade-tolerant and
is often found in the understory and midstory of
Pacific Northwest forests. It is also very adaptable
and can grow on a wide range of site conditions in
both single- and mixed-species stands. In contrast to
Douglas-fir, the subject of countless studies related
to its growth potential and response to management
in the region, very little has been reported for redcedar. A series of studies conducted over 30 years
on the responses of young growth redcedar to a wide
range of stand, site, and management conditions has
led researchers with the Pacific Northwest Research
Station to conclude that redcedar is very responsive
to management. For example, the species responded
well to both thinning and fertilization on a nutrientpoor site, it didn’t experience thinning shock when
released from overtopping competition, and in a
range-wide analysis, its growth rates held up better
under competition than Douglas-fir. These findings
are helping land managers evaluate opportunities
for growing redcedar to meet multiple economic and
ecological objectives.
