Book Synopsis Snag Densities in Old-growth Stands on the Gasquet Ranger District, Six Rivers National Forest, California by : Thomas Michael Jimerson

Book excerpt: Baseline levels for densities of snags (standing dead trees) wered etermined in undisturbed old-growth stands on the Gasquet Ranger District. Six Riven National Forest, California. Snag species, number, diameter at breast height (d.b.h.), height, cavity type, cavity use, decay class, and snag origin were recorded on 317 plots over a 2-year period. The 2121 snags recorded consisted of Pseudotsuga menziesii (36 percent), Abies concolor (29 perecnt), Abics mgnifica var. sharlemis (7 percent), Pinus lambertiana (4 percent), Chamaecyparis lawsonina (6 percent), hardwoods (10 percent), and other conifers combined (7 percent). Snags were categorized as large, medium or small. Large snags were characterized as snags 2 20 inches d.b.h. and 2 5 0 feet tall, the medium snags as snags 220 inches d.b.h. and 20-50 feet tall and the small snags as all other snags> 5 inches d.b.h. and 1 foot tall that did not qualify as large or medium snags. The snag densities for each category were then determined for each of the following conifer series: Lithocarpus densiforalPseudotsuga menziesii, Chamaecyparis lawsomina, Abies concolor and the Abies magnifica var. shastensis. The snag densities for all four series combined in each category were 2.07 large snags/acre, 1.94 medium snags/acre and 20.67 small snags/acre.
