    Martes Pennanti) Use of a Managed Forest in Coastal Northwest California1

    Fisher (Martes pennanti) Use of a Managed Forest in Coastal Northwest California1 Joel Thompson,2 Lowell Diller,2 Richard Golightly,3 and Richard Klug4 A sooted track plate survey was conducted for two seasons during winter, spring and summer of 1994 and 1995 to investigate fisher distribution across a managed landscape in Humboldt and Del Norte Counties, California. Forty survey segments were established throughout the region with each segment consisting of six sooted track plates (stations) at one-km intervals. Habitat characteristics were measured at 238 track-plate stations and in the stands where they were placed. Habitat attributes associated with fisher detection sites were compared to non-detection sites at both the station and stand level. Vegetation type was the only variable to be selected by the logistic procedure to predict fisher occurrence at the stand level. Fishers were detected more often in stands dominated by Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) or a mixture of Douglas-fir and coast redwood (Sequoia sempervirens) than in stands dominated only by redwood. We found no relationship between fisher detections and stand age, canopy cover, or topographic position. A forward stepwise logistic procedure indicated that presence of fishers at the station level was best predicted by increasing elevation, greater volume of logs, less basal area of conifer 52 to 90 cm, more moderate slopes and greater distance to the coast. During 1996 to 1997 a telemetry project was conducted to specifically look at vegetation and structural characteristics of fisher den and rest sites. Twenty-four individuals (10 male, 14 female) were captured during the study.

    Vegetation Descriptions NORTH COAST and MONTANE ECOLOGICAL PROVINCE

    Vegetation Descriptions NORTH COAST AND MONTANE ECOLOGICAL PROVINCE CALVEG ZONE 1 December 11, 2008 Note: There are three Sections in this zone: Northern California Coast (“Coast”), Northern California Coast Ranges (“Ranges”) and Klamath Mountains (“Mountains”), each with several to many subsections CONIFER FOREST / WOODLAND DF PACIFIC DOUGLAS-FIR ALLIANCE Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) is the dominant overstory conifer over a large area in the Mountains, Coast, and Ranges Sections. This alliance has been mapped at various densities in most subsections of this zone at elevations usually below 5600 feet (1708 m). Sugar Pine (Pinus lambertiana) is a common conifer associate in some areas. Tanoak (Lithocarpus densiflorus var. densiflorus) is the most common hardwood associate on mesic sites towards the west. Along western edges of the Mountains Section, a scattered overstory of Douglas-fir often exists over a continuous Tanoak understory with occasional Madrones (Arbutus menziesii). When Douglas-fir develops a closed-crown overstory, Tanoak may occur in its shrub form (Lithocarpus densiflorus var. echinoides). Canyon Live Oak (Quercus chrysolepis) becomes an important hardwood associate on steeper or drier slopes and those underlain by shallow soils. Black Oak (Q. kelloggii) may often associate with this conifer but usually is not abundant. In addition, any of the following tree species may be sparsely present in Douglas-fir stands: Redwood (Sequoia sempervirens), Ponderosa Pine (Ps ponderosa), Incense Cedar (Calocedrus decurrens), White Fir (Abies concolor), Oregon White Oak (Q garryana), Bigleaf Maple (Acer macrophyllum), California Bay (Umbellifera californica), and Tree Chinquapin (Chrysolepis chrysophylla). The shrub understory may also be quite diverse, including Huckleberry Oak (Q.

    Nr 222 Native Tree, Shrub, & Herbaceous Plant

    NR 222 NATIVE TREE, SHRUB, & HERBACEOUS PLANT IDENTIFICATION BY RONALD L. ALVES FALL 2014 NR 222 by Ronald L. Alves Note to Students NOTE TO STUDENTS: THIS DOCUMENT IS INCOMPLETE WITH OMISSIONS, ERRORS, AND OTHER ITEMS OF INCOMPETANCY. AS YOU MAKE USE OF IT NOTE THESE TRANSGRESSIONS SO THAT THEY MAY BE CORRECTED AND YOU WILL RECEIVE A CLEAN COPY BY THE END OF TIME OR THE SEMESTER, WHICHEVER COMES FIRST!! THANKING YOU FOR ANY ASSISTANCE THAT YOU MAY GIVE, RON ALVES. Introduction This manual was initially created by Harold Whaley an MJC Agriculture and Natural Resources instruction from 1964 – 1992. The manual was designed as a resource for a native tree and shrub identification course, Natural Resources 222 that was one of the required courses for all forestry and natural resource majors at the college. The course and the supporting manual were aimed almost exclusively for forestry and related majors. In addition to NR 222 being taught by professor Whaley, it has also been taught by Homer Bowen (MJC 19xx -), Marlies Boyd (MJC 199X – present), Richard Nimphius (MJC 1980 – 2006) and currently Ron Alves (MJC 1974 – 2004). Each instructor put their own particular emphasis and style on the course but it was always oriented toward forestry students until 2006. The lack of forestry majors as a result of the Agriculture Department not having a full time forestry instructor to recruit students and articulate with industry has resulted in a transformation of the NR 222 course. The clientele not only includes forestry major, but also landscape designers, environmental horticulture majors, nursery people, environmental science majors, and people interested in transforming their home and business landscapes to a more natural venue.
