Ezra Citron February 18, 2016 BLACK COTTONWOOD (POPULUS TRICHOCARPA) NUTRITION IN THE DEWATERED LAKE ALDWELL RESERVOIR ON THE ELWHA RIVER, WASHINGTON A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of Western Washington University In Partial Completion Of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science By Ezra Citron February 2016 Abstract Following dam removal on the Elwha River, WA, the ability of plants to access and uptake nutrients may be an important factor in ecosystem recovery. Foliage was collected in November 2014 from naturally-established black cottonwood (Populus trichocarpa) saplings growing in the dewatered Lake Aldwell reservoir sediments and adjacent forest. Analysis of variance was used to assess variability among reservoir sediment textures and the adjacent forest with respect to foliar macronutrient (N, P, K, Ca, Mg) and micronutrient (Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Ni) concentrations. Within the reservoir, foliar P, K, and Mn were higher, and foliar Ca was lower, in the fine sediments than in the coarse sediments. All reservoir environments had lower foliar Mg and Zn and higher foliar Mn than the adjacent forest. Correlation analyses indicated many significant correlations between nutrient pairs. Several positive nutrient correlations with N may indicate that N is stimulating protein synthesis, and several negative correlations between nutrient pairs may indicate that cations are competing for plant uptake. Considering seasonal nutrient fluctuation and senescence-induced nutrient resorption, foliar nutrient values measured in Lake Aldwell cottonwood were generally consistent with those reported in the literature from other populations of non-fertilized Populus. Exceptions were values for foliar Ca, Fe, and Cu, which were comparatively low. The majority of resorption- adjusted growing-season estimates for Lake Aldwell foliar macronutrients were within ranges reported as optimal in fertilized Populus, with the exception of high estimates for Mg in the adjacent forest and for N at all sites. Presently, black cottonwood productivity at Lake Aldwell does not seem to be constrained by nutrient limitation, but nutrient availability will be critical in determining species-compositional changes at dewatered Lake Aldwell and successional trajectories in other dewatered environments following dam removal. iv Acknowledgments This project was funded by a Huxley College Small Grant for Graduate Research awarded by Huxley College of the Environment.

  • Northstar Fire Department, Fire Resistant Landscaping Plant List
    Northstar Fire Department, Fire Resistant Landscaping Plant List Many common plants naturally resist fire and can even slow its spread. In general, irrigated and well maintained leafy plants burn slowly. By replacing highly flammable vegetation with these fire resistant recommended species, you can significantly improve the statistical survivability of your home when a wildfire threatens. Courtesy of the “Villager Nursery” in Truckee, this list of fire resistive plants should be considered when enhancing or adding landscape. Here are some other key components to remember when selecting appropriate fire resistant landscaping plants. Choose plants that don’t produce much litter such as dead branches and twigs Plants that produce oils, resins or waxes should be avoided When planting from the approved list, appropriately space plants to prevent fire spread Never plant under conifer trees, this can create a ladder effect which allows smaller ground fires the ability to transfer into larger trees creating crown fires To help ensure their fire resistance, plants must be maintained, watered, and pruned. Routine care will provide you with an attractive defensible space landscape and help ensure the survival of your property in the event of a wildfire. Northstar Fire Department enforces both State and District fire codes that may directly affect your landscape. Northstar Fire Department recommends that prior to changing your landscape you consult with us in order to make sure your property will be compliant with applicable fire codes.

    Populus: A Premier Pioneer System for Plant Genomics 1 1 Populus: A Premier Pioneer System for Plant Genomics Stephen P. DiFazio,1,a,* Gancho T. Slavov 1,b and Chandrashekhar P. Joshi 2 ABSTRACT The genus Populus has emerged as one of the premier systems for studying multiple aspects of tree biology, combining diverse ecological characteristics, a suite of hybridization complexes in natural systems, an extensive toolbox of genetic and genomic tools, and biological characteristics that facilitate experimental manipulation. Here we review some of the salient biological characteristics that have made this genus such a popular object of study. We begin with the taxonomic status of Populus, which is now a subject of ongoing debate, though it is becoming increasingly clear that molecular phylogenies are accumulating. We also cover some of the life history traits that characterize the genus, including the pioneer habit, long-distance pollen and seed dispersal, and extensive vegetative propagation. In keeping with the focus of this book, we highlight the genetic diversity of the genus, including patterns of differentiation among populations, inbreeding, nucleotide diversity, and linkage disequilibrium for species from the major commercially- important sections of the genus. We conclude with an overview of the extent and rapid spread of global Populus culture, which is a testimony to the growing economic importance of this fascinating genus.

Black cottonwood and balsam are distinguished from other tree species by the highest rate of early growth Geographic Range and Ecological Amplitudes Description Black cottonwood is a medium- to large-sized (exceptionally over 60 m tall), deciduous broad-leaved tree, at maturity with a narrow, sometimes columnar crown, with a few thick ascending branches and dark gray, irregularly shaped furrows. Many kinds of wildlife use the foliage, twigs, and buds for food. The wood is light and soft and is used for lumber, veneer, and pulp. Geographic Range Geographic element: Western North American/Pacific and Cordilleran Distribution in Western North America: north, central, and south in the Pacific region; central and south in the Cordilleran region Ecological Climatic amplitude>: Amplitudes (subalpine boreal) - montane boreal - cool temperate - cool mesothermal (absent or marginally in hypermaritime climates) Orographic amplitude: submontane - montane - (subalpine) Occurrence in biogeoclimatic zones: (lower MH), (lower ESSF), (MS), BWBS, SBS, (SBPS), (BG), (PP), IDF, ICH, CDF, CWH Edaphic Amplitude: Range of soil moisture regimes: slightly dry - fresh - moist - very moist - (wet) Range of soil nutrient regimes: (poor) - medium - rich - very rich The edaphic amplitude of black cottonwood is very similar to that of balsam poplar. The major ecological difference between the two species is in their climatic requirements. While balsam poplar is mainly a subarctic or boreal tree, black cottonwood grows mainly in temperate and mesothermal climates, only marginally in subalpine boreal climates.

Jónsson, Bjarni D. Sigurðsson Landbúnaðarháskóli Íslands Umhverfisdeild Statement I hereby declare that present thesis is based on my own observations, is written by me and that it has never been in part or as a whole submitted to a higher degree. Lena Mikaelsson iv Abstract The main objectives of this study were to investigate the effects of different spacing treatments on aboveground biomass production, bark, sapwood and heartwood ratios and the branching ratio in 20-year old Black cottonwood (Populus balsamifera L. ssp. trichocarpa (Torr. & A. Gray ex Hook.) Brayshaw) experimental plantation within Sandlækjarmýri research forest in southern Iceland. Data and wood samples were collected from 40 trees of 8 different spacing treatments (0.5 x 0.5 m, 0.5 x 1.0 m, 1.0 x 1.0 m, 1.0 x 1.5 m, 1.0 x 2.0, 2.0 x 1.5 m, 2.0 x 2.0 m and 3.0 x 3.0 m) repeated five times in a random manner. Main findings were that overall aboveground biomass per hectare increased with density and reached carrying capacity at approximately 5 000 trees ha-1. Density effects on survival and bark, sapwood and heartwood ratios were insignificant between spacing treatments. Initial spacing, however, did have significant effect on the ratio of branch mass to total above ground biomass that decreased with increasing density.

  • Populus Breeding: from the Classical to the Genomic Approach (Brian J
    Populus Breeding: From the Classical to the Genomic Approach (Brian J. Stanton, David B. Neale, and Shanwen Li - 2010) Populus Breeding: From the Classical to the Genomic Approach Brian J. Stanton, David B. Neale, and Shanwen Li Abstract Populus breeding is distinguished by a long history in forest tree improvement and its frequent dual reliance on inter-specific hybridization and vari- etal selection as the prominent domestication strategy. This chapter presents a review of the genecology and the principal long-term improvement approaches con- sidered in the manipulation of the genus’ key taxa, the pertinent experimental design features of worldwide varietal evaluation programs, and the current understanding of the morphological, physiological, and pathology components of yield and the physical and chemical components of wood quality. The chapter concludes with an assessment of the molecular tools being developed for an integrated translational genomics program to improve upon present breeding and selection methodologies. 1 Introduction Populus was the first woody perennial to gain recognition as a model for worldwide tree breeding programs because of the groundbreaking work in species hybridiza- tion, polyploid breeding, and investigations into pathogen resistance during the early part of the twentieth century (Pauley, 1949). More recently, the success that Populus clonal testing, selection, and deployment has achieved in boosting the trend toward worldwide varietal forestry over the last 20 years cannot be overestimated. Although tree improvement work in Populus may be surpassed in sophistication by today’s Pinus and Eucalyptus breeding programs, the model designation remains deserved in view of the sequencing of the Populus genome – the first of any tree in 2006 – and the subsequent investigations into genotype-phenotype associations.

Known also as balsam cottonwood, western balsam poplar, and California poplar, it grows primarily on moist sites west of the Rocky Mountains. The most produc­ tive sites are the bottom lands of major streams and rivers west of the Cascade Range in the Pacific Northwest. Pure stands may form on alluvial soils. Black cottonwood is harvested and used -for lumber, veneer, and fiber products. Many kinds of wildlife use the foliage, twigs, and buds for food, and the tree is planted for shade and in windbreaks and shelter­ belts. Habitat Native Range The range of black cottonwood (fig. 1) extends northeast from Kodiak Island along Cook Inlet to latitude 62° 30' N., then southeast in southeast Alas­ ka and British Columbia to the forested areas of Washington and Oregon, to the mountains in southern California and northern Baja California (lat. 31o N. ). It is also found inland, generally on the west side of the Rocky Mountains, in British Colum­ bia, western Alberta, western Montana, and northern Idaho.

  • Appendix C: Revegetation Recommendations
    APPENDIX C Duwamish Blueprint November 6, 2014 Duwamish Revegetation Recommendations Upland terrestrial and riparian vegetation should favor tree species historically present in the Duwamish (Collins and Sheikh, 2005), and a diversity of plants that will support a wide variety of terrestrial insects, which juvenile salmonids eat when available. Tree species composition should be shaped by historical information along with expected soil and moisture characteristics. Plants may need to be irrigated during the first two seasons until established. “Streamside tree species being both relatively common and large in diameter . include Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii, which may actually have been partially or dominantly Sitka spruce, Picea sitchensis), western redcedar (Thuja plicata), bigleaf maple (Acer macrophyllum), and black cottonwood (Populus trichocarpa). The valley floor was dominated in frequency (but not basal area) by red alder (Alnus rubra) and Oregon ash (Fraxinus latifolia) (Collins and Sheikh, 2005).” Revegetation recommendations from the U.S. Forest Service (R. Beal, pers. comm.): • Conduct adequate site preparation by fully removing invasive species (mechanical removal with crews and/or herbicide treatment with follow-up one or two times to grub roots or reapply, depending on species) within a defensible project boundary (extend projects so they are bordered by a road, trail, water terrace or other). Avoid soil disturbance after treatment to minimize growth of invasive seeds that may be deeper in the soil. • Use reference / least disturbed sites to inform your plant species selection, stem densities, tree-shrub ratios to build a trans-successional palette (vs. one that is early or late seral only). Typical densities are between 2200-2600 stems per acre, with an interplant the following year or two as needed to address any loss.
