SALT TOLERANT PLANTS Recommended for Pender County Landscapes
North Carolina Cooperative Extension NC STATE UNIVERSITY SALT TOLERANT PLANTS Recommended for Pender County Landscapes Pender County Cooperative Extension Urban Horticulture Leaflet 14 Coastal Challenges Plants growing at the beach are subjected to environmental conditions much different than those planted further inland. Factors such as blowing sand, poor soils, high temperatures, and excessive drainage all influence how well plants perform in coastal landscapes, though the most significant effect on growth is salt spray. Most plants will not tolerate salt accumulating on their foliage, making plant selection for beachfront land- scapes particularly challenging. Salt Spray Salt spray is created when waves break on the beach, throwing tiny droplets of salty water into the air. On-shore breezes blow this salt laden air landward where it comes in contact with plant foliage. The amount of salt spray plants receive varies depending on their proximity to the beachfront, creating different vegetation zones as one gets further away from the beachfront. The most salt-tolerant species surviving in the frontal dune area. As distance away from the ocean increases, the level of salt spray decreases, allowing plants with less salt tolerance to survive. Natural Protection The impact of salt spray on plants can be lessened by physically blocking salt laden winds. This occurs naturally in the maritime forest, where beachfront plants protect landward species by creating a layer of foliage that blocks salt spray. It is easy to see this effect on the ocean side of maritime forest plants, which are “sheared” by salt spray, causing them to grow at a slant away from the oceanfront.

The landscape character of the Badger Mountain South community as identified in these standards borrows heavily from the precedent of the original shrub-steppe landscape found here. However that historical character is joined with other opportunities for a more refined and urban landscape pattern that relates to edges of uses and defines spaces into activity areas. This section is divided into the following sub-sections: Guiding Principles, which suggest the overall orientation for all landscape applications; Common Standards, which apply to all Districts; District-specific landscape standards; and finally extensive plant lists of materials suitable in a variety of situations. 1.

Old-growth western juniper stands that established in presettlement times (before the 1870s) occur primarily on sites of low productivity such as claypan soils, rimrock, outcrops, the edges of mesas, and upper slopes. They are generally very open and often had sparse understories. Western juniper has established and spread onto low slopes and valleys in many areas, especially areas formerly dominated by mountain big sagebrush. These postsettlement stands (woodland transitional communities) are denser than most presettlement and old-growth woodlands. They have substantial shrub understories in early to midsuccession. Western juniper establishes from seed. Seed cones are first produced around 20 years of age, but few are produced until at least 50 years of age. Mature western junipers produce seeds nearly every year, although seed production is highly variable across sites and years.

Radial Growth Rate Responses of Western Juniper (Juniperus Occidentalis Hook.) to Atmospheric and Climatic Changes: a Longitudinal Study from Central Oregon, USA
Article Radial Growth Rate Responses of Western Juniper (Juniperus occidentalis Hook.) to Atmospheric and Climatic Changes: A Longitudinal Study from Central Oregon, USA Peter T. Soulé 1,* and Paul A. Knapp 2 1 Appalachian Tree-Ring Laboratory, Department of Geography and Planning, Appalachian State University, Boone, NC 28608, USA 2 Carolina Tree-Ring Science Laboratory, Department of Geography, Environment, and Sustainability, University of North Carolina-Greensboro, Greensboro, NC 27412, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 19 September 2019; Accepted: 6 December 2019; Published: 10 December 2019 Abstract: Research Highlights: In this longitudinal study, we explore the impacts of changing atmospheric composition and increasing aridity on the radial growth rates of western juniper (WJ; Juniperus occidentalis Hook). Since we sampled from study locations with minimal human agency, we can partially control for confounding inﬂuences on radial growth (e.g., grazing and logging) and better isolate the relationships between radial growth and climatic conditions. Background and Objectives: Our primary objective is to determine if carbon dioxide (CO2) enrichment continues to be a primary driving force for a tree species positively aﬀected by increasing CO2 levels circa the late 1990s. Materials and Methods: We collected data from mature WJ trees on four minimally disturbed study sites in central Oregon and compared standardized radial growth rates to climatic conditions from 1905–2017 using correlation, moving-interval correlation, and regression techniques. Results: We found the primary climate driver of radial growth for WJ is antecedent moisture over a period of several months prior to and including the current growing season. Further, the moving-interval correlations revealed that these relationships are highly stable through time.

Notes on Some Species of Chloroscypha Endophytic in Cupressaceae of Europe and North America
©Verlag Ferdinand Berger & Söhne Ges.m.b.H., Horn, Austria, download unter www.biologiezentrum.at Notes on some Species of Chloroscypha Endophytic in Cupressaceae of Europe and North America 0. PETEJNI Mikrobiologisches Institut, ETH-Zentrum, CH-8092 Zürich, Schweiz Introduction The genus Chloroscypha was proposed by SEAVER in 1931, based on a fungus collected on Thuja plicata D. DON. He included C. seaveri REHM ex SEAVER as the type and three other species, viz. C. chloro- mela (PHILL. & HARK.) SEAVER, C. jacksonii SEAVER [= C. entero- chroma (PECK) SEAVER] and C. juniperina (ELLIS) SEAVER [= C. sa- binae (FUCK.) DENNIS]. In 1938 SEAVER added another species, C. cedrina (COOKE) SEAVER. Later, in 1943, he transferred all Chloro- cypha species to Kriegeria RABENHORST. SEAVER considered Ombro- phila kriegeriana RABH. to be the type-species of Kriegeria RABH. However, as pointed out by DENNIS (1954, 1956), Kriegeria has not been validly published by RABENHORST, who only proposed to erect a new genus for Ombrophila kriegeriana, and suggested the name Kriegeria ad interim. In addition, at the time SEAVER adopted it. this name was already occupied by Kriegeria eriophori BRESADOLA (1891), belonging to the Tuberculariaceae (Auriculariales according to von HÖHNEL, 1909). Thus the name Chloroscypha SEAVER has been re- established by later authors. For a detailed account of the nomen- clatural problem see DENNIS (1954) and KOBAYASHI (1965). Ten species have been described, all of them occurring on Cupressaceae. Species of Chloroscypha are suspected to be weak pathogens of Cupressaceae (GREMMEN, 1963; KOBAYASHI, 1965), however, the extent of their pathogenicity is not known yet. Reinoculation experi- ments have not been conducted because it has not been possible to obtain species of Chloroscypha in pure culture.
