Age and diameter structure of a managed uneven-aged oak forest

EF Loewenstein, PS Johnson… - Canadian Journal of …, 2000 - cdnsciencepub.com
We studied the age and diameter structure on one section (259 ha) of a 63 000-ha privately
owned forest in the Ozark Highlands of Missouri. The forest has been managed using a …

An individual-tree diameter growth model for managed uneven-aged oak-shortleaf pine stands in the Ozark Highlands of Missouri, USA

JM Lhotka, EF Loewenstein - Forest ecology and management, 2011 - Elsevier
The Pioneer Forest encompasses more than 60,000ha in the Ozark Highlands of Missouri,
USA and has been managed using single-tree selection since the early 1950s. This paper …

Non-native plants in the understory of riparian forests across a land use gradient in the Southeast

NJ Loewenstein, EF Loewenstein - Urban Ecosystems, 2005 - Springer
As urbanization expands into rural areas, an increase in the number of non-native plant
species at the urban-rural interface is expected due in large part to the increased availability of …

Microbial properties and litter and soil nutrients after two prescribed fires in developing savannas in an upland Missouri Ozark Forest

F Ponder Jr, M Tadros, EF Loewenstein - Forest Ecology and Management, 2009 - Elsevier
On some landscapes periodic fire may be necessary to develop and maintain oak-dominated
savannas. We studied the effects of two annual prescribed burns to determine their effect …

Indirect measures for characterizing light along a gradient of mixed-hardwood riparian forest canopy structures

JM Lhotka, EF Loewenstein - Forest Ecology and Management, 2006 - Elsevier
Understanding the effect of canopy structure on the understory light environment is useful in
the design of silvicultural strategies that facilitate sustainable tree recruitment. To address …

Comparison of carbon storage, carbon sequestration, and air pollution removal by protected and maintained urban forests in Alabama, USA

…, AH Chappelka, EF Loewenstein… - … journal of biodiversity …, 2012 - Taylor & Francis
The Auburn University campus in Auburn, Alabama, USA, was the location for a case study
to compare carbon storage, carbon sequestration, and air pollution (CO, O 3 , NO 2 , PM10, …

Effect of midstory removal on understory light availability and the 2–year response of underplanted Cherrybark Oak seedlings

JM Lhotka, EF Loewenstein - Southern Journal of Applied …, 2009 - academic.oup.com
This study evaluates the effects of four midstory removal intensities on residual stand
structure, understory light availability, and the 2-year growth and survival of underplanted …

Effect of animal browse protection and fertilizer application on the establishment of planted Nuttall oak seedlings

TS Taylor, EF Loewenstein, AH Chappelka - New Forests, 2006 - Springer
For establishment to be successful, planted oak must emerge above vegetative competition
and browse level. A 3 year study was established in 2000 in a cutover bottomland hardwood …

Influence of canopy structure on the survival and growth of underplanted seedlings

JM Lhotka, EF Loewenstein - New Forests, 2008 - Springer
This study explores the indirect relationship between forest structural measures and initial
seedling survival and growth along a structural gradient between 64% to 92% canopy closure. …

Conversion of uniform broadleaved stands to an uneven-aged structure

EF Loewenstein - Forest Ecology and Management, 2005 - Elsevier
The conversion of an even-aged (single tiered canopy) stand to a multi-tiered (uneven-aged)
structure can be accomplished by vertically partitioning growing space among canopy …
