Uneven-aged management in the Missouri Ozarks: effects of site conditions, stand density, and prior populations on oak regeneration
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
While studies have shown the importance of site characteristics and overstory density on the success of white oak regeneration under uneven-aged management, few studies have analyzed the effects of these variables over time in the Missouri Ozarks...
The survival and growth of shortleaf pine systems in the Missouri Ozarks : effects of competition, genetics, and site preparation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
survival and growth rates of planted shortleaf pine relative to artificial and natural hardwoods, identify barriers to regeneration success, and develop tools for individual tree assessment. Data from three long-term studies in southeastern Missouri were...
Interspecific interactions between olive trees and grapevines in vineyard agroforestry systems in an arid climate region
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
. This thesis summarizes the existing body of knowledge surrounding vineyard agroforestry systems in an extensive literature review, and also contributes new research about olive tree and wine grape vineyard agroforestry systems in an arid and irrigated grape...
Turning up the heat: fire ecology and climate adaptive silviculture in longleaf pine forests
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Frequent fire is required to maintain the characteristic structure, function, and high biodiversity of longleaf pine woodlands. Longleaf pine regeneration is exposed to this frequent fire, yet persists as both patches and ...
