The BLM OR/WA: Oregon State Office is offering this grant to continue the Westside Mature Forest Study. This grant is for the purpose of assessing the growth and development of forest stands under various management regimes. Key research objectives include characterizing understory progression to mid-story structure, determining overstory cover and basal area growth, and quantifying shrub and herbaceous plant responses. The study also aims to evaluate how tree distribution after thinning affects underplanted regeneration, establish demonstration sites, compare the contributions of natural and planted seedlings, and assess the net effect of salvage operations on forest ecosystems.
