  • A PLACE to CHERISH and STUDY BACK Mary Mcdonald
    THE MAGAZINE OF THE OREGON STATE UNIVERSITY ALUMNI ASSOCIATION WINTER OREGON 2016 STATER A PLACE TO CHERISH AND STUDY BACK LOOKING LOOKING Mary McDonald >> and the forest on the hill By Ann Kinkley | Photos by Hannah O’Leary Clipboard in hand, binoculars around her neck, OSU master’s candi- date Amy Barry ’09 moves beneath a canopy of older Douglas fir in the McDonald-Dunn Research Forest, the crown jewel of the College of Forestry’s living laboratories. She’s checking snags — old, dead trees — for small birds such as chickadees, studying how different species make use of the ragged, decaying trunks and branches as the forest matures. Generations of students and researchers have studied, and will continue to study, in the 11,250 acres just beyond the northern city limits of Corvallis, exploring everything from new logging techniques to how various recreation activities change as a forest changes. Told that the woman whose generosity allowed the college to buy the first major pieces of the “Mac-Dunn” had no strong connections to the college but, simply out of gratitude and generosity, wanted to make sure its students had a good place to do their research, Barry is amazed. “That’s absolutely incredible,” she says. “It’s crucial for the work we do to have a forest like this that’s not maintained primarily for tim- ber harvest, but for research. And to have it so close — I can leave my office in Peavy Hall and be here in 15 minutes!” 20 << OREGON STATER hy did Mary McDonald, a wealthy widow in California, give money to Oregon Agricultural College to Wpurchase 6,000 acres of forestland, plus a valuable rare book collection and the resources to create a room for them, as well as endowments for scholarships in several departments? The expertise of Oregon State forestry legend George Peavy had plenty to do with it.

A major focus of past research has been on tree mortality from fre, as trees provide a vast range of biological services. We assembled a database of individual-tree records from prescribed fres and wildfres in the United States. The Fire and Tree Mortality (FTM) database includes records from 164,293 individual trees with records of fre injury (crown scorch, bole char, etc.), tree diameter, and either mortality or top-kill up to ten years post-fre. Data span 142 species and 62 genera, from 409 fres occurring from 1981-2016. Additional variables such as insect attack are included when available. The FTM database can be used to evaluate individual fre-caused mortality models for pre-fre planning and post-fre decision support, to develop improved models, and to explore general patterns of individual fre-induced tree death. The database can also be used to identify knowledge gaps that could be addressed in future research.
