This project is a companion to the Blacks Mountain Ecological Research Project described by Oliver (2000). The genesis for this project was the Northwest Forest Plan (USDA and USDI 1994a). As a part of the Northwest Forest Plan, a network of Adaptive Management Areas was created in Oregon, Washington, and northern California. One of the primary goals of the Goosenest Adaptive Management Area was to investigate means of accelerating the development of late successional forest properties. Led by researchers from the Pacific Southwest Research Station in Redding, California, an interdisciplinary team of scientists designed an experiment to evaluate the use of mechanical treatments and prescribed fire to accelerate late-successional conditions in the Goosenest Adaptive Management Area. The experimental design features four treatments, each replicated five times. The treatment units are 100 acres (40.5 hectares), plus a buffer area of varying size, but generally close to 328 feet (100 meters) in width. The first of the four treatments features a thinning favoring the reestablishment of pine dominance in the forest (Pine-Emphasis Treatment)--"In brief. 410 0$aGeneral technical report PSW;$v192 606 $aEcology$zKlamath National Forest (Calif. and Or.) 606 $aFire ecology$zKlamath National Forest (Calif. and Or.) 606 $aEcological succession$zKlamath National Forest (Calif. and Or.) 606 $aPrescribed burning$zKlamath National Forest (Calif. and Or.) 606 $aForest management$zKlamath National Forest (Calif. and Or.) 615 0$aEcology 615 0$aFire ecology 615 0$aEcological succession 615 0$aPrescribed burning 615 0$aForest management 700 $aRitchie$b Martin W$01403441 712 02$aPacific Southwest Research Station. 801 0$bORE 801 1$bORE 801 2$bGPO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910696542503321 996 $aEcological research at the Goosenest Adaptive Management Area in northeastern California$93507259 997 $aUNINA
