From the text ... 'Crown weight tables are used to provide estimates of slash loading that will result from timber cutting. This information is useful for assessing potential utilization of slash for fuelwood or other forest products, predicting fire behavior potential,…

Losses to the atmosphere of our nutrient elements, phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), and magnesium (Mg), caused by slash burning a logged-over mixed forest coupe in the Florentine Valley in Tasmania, were estimated by weighing and sampling the slash on marked plots…

A book based on a conference of the same name held 22-24 October, 1979 at the University of New Brunswick. There are 15 chapters, including an introduction by the editors. The remaining 14 chapters are divided into 5 sections: Past and present fire frequencies; Physical effects…

Patterns of undisturbed nutrient cycling in northern ecosystems and the impact of fire on nutrient cycling are reviewed and discussed. The various effects of fire on ecosystem nutrient cycling may be broadly subdivided into (1) nutrient redistribution during fire, and (2)…

'Two studies were undertaken. An initial study in 1974 produced results that indicated significant losses of nitrogen and some other elements. The study was repeated 1981 as a check on the results of the 1974 burn, and to provide an assessment of the methods used in the first…
