Structural diversity of the longleaf pine ecosystem

Forest Ecology and Management, 2020
Abstract Structural diversity is an important attribute of forest ecosystems and is related to ecosystem stability, adaptability and resilience as well as biodiversity and productivity. Structural diversity in the longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.) ecosystem, the most diverse ecosystem of North America, has not been well documented, especially ...

Longleaf Pine Growth and Yield

2006
Across the historical range of longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.), less than 10% of lands previously occupied by longleaf ecosystems are currently in public ownership (Johnson and Gjerstad 1999; Alavalapati et al., this volume). The remainder is owned by private entities ranging from the forest industry, to timberland investment organizations, to ...

Longleaf Pine Pollen Dispersal

Forest Science, 1966
Abstract A high ratio of pollen drift to deposition and the high level of pollen found in an open area suggest that Pinus palustris forests fill the air with pollen that travels for long distances, with density declining mostly through diffusion rather than fallout.

A Longleaf Pine Thinning Study

Journal of Forestry, 1951
Abstract Some phases of the growth of longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) have been studied intensively, but the species' growth and response to thinning have received only limited attention. This paper summarizes results from one of the very few carefully planned longleaf thinning studies that are old enough to provide information on ...

Sprouting Ability of Longleaf Pine

Forest Science, 1975
Abstract One to 3 years after naturally regenerated longleaf pines were cut at the ground line, living sprouts were observed on about three times as many grass-stage seedlings as height-growth seedlings No saplings sprouted. Forest Sci. 21:189-190.

Longleaf Pine Ecosystem Restoration

Journal of Sustainable Forestry, 1999
Summary Longleaf pine (Pinus palustrisMill.) ecosystems once occupied over 36 million hectares in the southeastern United States' lower coastal plain. These fire-dependent ecosystems dominated a wide range of coastal plain sites, including dry uplands and low, wet flatlands.

Longleaf Pine Regeneration Ecology and Methods

2006
Regenerating longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) is key to its long-term sustainable production of forest resources and its perpetuation as the dominant tree species in a variety of important ecosystems ranging from xeric to mesic to hydric site conditions. Early regeneration to problems and the subsequent efforts to overcome these are significant features

Thinning Longleaf Pine on Average Sites

Journal of Forestry, 1968
Abstract Indications are that near-maximum periodic cubic volume growth and yield may be attained by thinning lightly and frequently from below to leave medium densities ranging from 55 to 65 percent of normal basal area per acre.
