Fertilization Increases Below-ground Carbon Sequestration of Loblolly Pine Plantations
The extent of fertilization of southern pine forests is increasing rapidly; industrial fertilization increased from 16,200 ha per year in 1988, to 344,250 ha in 1998. Fertilization increases stand productivity and can increase carbon (C) sequestration by: 1) increasing above-ground standing C; 2) increasing C stored in forest products; and 3) increasing below-ground C pools. This talk will conc...
متن کاملEffect of midrotation fertilization on growth and specific gravity of loblolly pine
Wood properties and growth were measured on breast-height cores and on disks collected at different heights from a thinned and fertilized midrotation loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) plantation in the lower Coastal Plain of North Carolina. The study was laid out in a randomized complete-block design receiving four levels of nitrogen (N) fertilizer: unfertilized control and 112, 224, and 336 kg/ha...

Lohlollypine (Pinus taeda LJplantations were studied across 13 southeastern sites grown for 1.5 yr with near-complete control o f woody, herbaceous, and woody plus herbaceous components during the f irst 3-5 yr . This mult iple object ive experiment ( the COMProject) documents stand dynamics at the extreme corners o f the response surface that encompasses most compet i t ion condi t ions common...
متن کاملModelling the Response of Loblolly Pine to Juvenile Fertilization
This paper presents a dominant height and basal area response function for juvenile (ages 2-8) loblolly pine stands that have been fertilized with a combination dose of 200 lbs/ac of nitrogen and 50 lbs/ac of phosphorus. The data used to construct the response functions originated from the Region-wide 2 Study of the North Carolina State University Forest Nutrition Cooperative. The data set incl...
متن کاملEffect of Fertilization on Growth and Wood Properties of Thinned and Unthinned Midrotation Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda L.) Stands
productivity; effects of different silvicultural treatments on the availability of limited resources; and the final consequence of resource availability on productivity and wood quality (Allen et al. 2005). An understanding of the effect of different management practices on productivity and quality of wood is of great importance both for wood growers and wood buyers. Therefore, our objectives w...
