LiDAR and Forestry: Opportunities, Challenges, and Future

Problem Addressed: LiDAR and structure for motion provide invaluable data on forests
Goal(s)/Objective(s): Describe potential uses and challenges of these 3D technologies
Key Findings: 3D will change how we inventory and make forest management decisions
Recommendation: Continued research and evaluation of 3D products is needed for full utilization

Long-term response of spruce–fir stands to herbicide and precommercial thinning: observed and projected growth, yield, and financial returns in central Maine, USA

Problem Addressed: Long-term growth and yield responses from controlled experiments that include both herbicide application and precommercial thinning.
Goal(s)/Objective(s): Use 40-year growth and yield responses of spruce–fir stands to combinations of early herbicide and PCT to calibrate the Forest Vegetation Simulator (Northeast Variant).
Key Findings: Highest stumpage values resulted from combined herbicide and PCT treatments, followed by PCT-only and then herbicide-only.
Recommendation: Good financial returns are possible over the long-term from early investments in herbicide and PCT treatments in Maine spruce–fir stands.
