Description

The third edition of The Ecology and Silviculture of Oaks is an updated and expanded edition that explores oak forests as responsive ecosystems.

New chapters emphasize the importance of fire in sustaining and managing oak forests, the effects of a changing climate, and advanced artificial regeneration techniques.

This new edition expands on silvicultural methods for restoring and sustaining oak woodlands and savannahs, and on management of ecosystem services, including wildlife habitat.

It also incorporates new material on evaluating landscape-scale, and cumulative effects of management action compared with inaction.

Nine of the fifteen chapters cover updated information on the geographic distribution of US oaks, oak regeneration dynamics, site productivity, stocking and stand development, even- and uneven-aged silvicultural methods, and growth and yield.

This edition includes a new section with colour illustrations for improved visualization of complex relationships.

This book is intended for forest and wildlife managers, ecologists, silviculturists, environmentalists, and students of those fields.
