Black Spruce Diameter Growth Model Data
No full textThis data was used in fitting diameter growth models for a historical silviculture study in lowland black spruce. It consists of an initial diameter and second diameter 9-11 years after the initial measurement for 10,231 black spruce trees. Also included are other key individual tree and stand-level variables used in formulating the diameter growth model, and the treatment associated with each tree, plot, and compartment.Anderson, Brian D; Windmuller-Campione, Marcella A; Russell, Matthew B.

White-tailed deer density estimates across the eastern United States, 2008
No full textThe QDMA spatial map depicting deer density (deer per square mile) was digitized across the eastern United States. Estimates of deer density were: White = rare, absent, or urban area with unknown population, Green = less than 15 deer per square mile, Yellow = 15 to 30 deer per square mile, Orange = 30 to 40 deer per square mile, or Red = greater than 45 deer per square mile. These categories represent coarse deer density levels as identified in the QDMA report in 2009 and should not be used to represent current or future deer densities across the study region.In 2008, the Quality Deer Management Association (QDMA) developed a map of white-tailed deer density with information obtained from state wildlife agencies. The map contains information from 2001 to 2005, with noticeable changes since the development of the first deer density map made by QDMA in 2001. The University of Minnesota, Forest Ecosystem Health Lab and the US Department of Agriculture, Forest Service-Northern Research Station have digitized the deer density map to provide information on the status and trends of forest health across the eastern United States.Quality Deer Management AssociationUS Department of Agriculture, Forest Service-Northern Research StationMinnesota Agricultural Experiment StationWalters, Brian F.; Woodall, Christopher W.; Russell, Matthew B..

Wood density and decay dynamics of pentachlorophenol-treated wooden posts for four species in Minnesota, USA
No full textA wooden fence post experiment was installed at the University of Minnesota's Cloquet Forestry Center (CFC) in 1942. Posts were originally treated in a 5% oil solution of one part pentachlorophenol dissolved in four parts of kerosene by soaking in an upright position in an open oil drum. In 2017 wood decay measurements were collected from cross-sectional disks on a subset of these posts. These data could can used to represent moisture loss and decay from pentachlorophenol treatments.Wood decay measurements collected from fence posts that were treated with a 5% oil solution of pentachlorophenol in 1942.

Perspectives on Ash Wood Utilization and Marketing in Minnesota
No full textThe CSV data file contains deidentified survey responses obtained through Qualtrics. The PDF document contains the survey instrument used for the survey.In 2019 the University of Minnesota surveyed forest products companies and natural resource managers about the use of ash wood and the future of the ash resource in Minnesota given the current and future distribution of the emerald ash borer. The survey was used to gain knowledge on the current and future use of ash wood in Minnesota. This information has provided information to researchers and managers on current and future approaches to utilize forest products from ash trees.Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station, project 42-063University of Minnesota Undergraduate Research Opportunity ProgramRussell, Matthew B; Ring, Elizabeth C.
