Oliver & Larson (silviculture and forestry at U. of Washington and Yale) examine the impact of such disturbances as wind, fire, and floods upon the development patterns of forests in all regions of North America. They consider the effects and importance of site preparation, planting, thinning, and other silvicultural operations; discuss the link between quantification and the biological understanding of forest growth; and investigate landscape and regional patterns and changes in forests.
