Abstract Former agricultural lands converted to pine (Pinus spp.) plantations in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) have potential to provide early successional (ES) habitat for many regionally declining pine/grassland and shrub-successional bird species if actively managed with appropriate disturbance regimes. One such regime is use of the selective herbicide Imazapyr (Arsenal Applicators Concentrate) and prescribed burning, which is permitted on CRP lands and cost share payments are available. This study quantified combined effects of Imazapyr and prescribed fire on the breeding season avian community characteristics and pine volume growth in thinned, midrotation afforested loblolly pine (Pinus taedaL.) plantations in Mississippi. Herbicide treatments were applied in fall of 2002 and winter burns were conducted during winter and early spring of 2002–2003. ES bird species richness was significantly greater in the treated plots compared with controls for both 2003 and 2004. Ten individual species exhibited treatment effects. These responses by ES bird species indicate that midrotation CRPplantations can provide needed ES habitat if treated with appropriate disturbance regimes.

We reviewed the temporal, geographic, and biogeographic distribution, as well as relevant research and publication attributes, of 512 documents addressing the effects of fire on avian communities, to provide an assessment of the scope of this literature and recommendations for future research. We summarized relevant attributes of all documents to identify patterns that were then tested against appropriate null models. Most documents reported on original research, with the literature evenly divided between studies investigating controlled fire and those reporting on uncontrolled wildfires. Conceptual reviews made up the second largest category; methodological reviews, bibliographies, and meta-analyses were rare. Although the literature examined spans nearly a century, most documents were published within the last 15 years, with new literature being added at an increasing rate. However, increases seem to be skewed towards original research at the expense of synthesis. An overwhelming majority of documents were published in peer-reviewed scientific journals and in English. Other important publication outlets included MS and PhD theses and conference proceedings. The spatial distribution of documents by continent and biogeographic domain and division differed significantly from expectations based on land area. Future research on avian community response to fire should focus on (1) continued synthesis, emphasizing methodological reviews, bibliographies, and North America; (2) increasing research efforts in areas currently underrepresented in the literature, including Africa, Asia, and South and Central America; and (3) meta-analyses.

Complete Concept

The Complete Concept, biological and technological investigation of the entire tree from the root tips to the leaf tips inclusive, has been incorporated much more into the management and utilization of hardwoods than softwoods in the past ten years. Mechanized harvesting centered around mobile chiparvestors has increased production per hectare in hardwood stands about 100% by utilizing "tops" as well as small trees of all hardwood species previously not used. All of the traditional uses of hardwood are expanding to meet demand and simultaneously there is increased use for energy, cattle feed and chemicals such as xylitol. With the acknowledged shortage of fossil resources chemists and engineers are now critically examining the forests, our renewable resource, indicating that increased use of hardwoods is certain.Short rotation of 3-10 years involving thousands of stems per acre, often as a result or coppicing, are now being investigated for a number of hardwood species. This will result in intensive forest management similar to agronomy except that fibre rather than fruit production will be emphasized. Advances in short rotation management of hardwoods will always lag behind hardwood utilization because development times are not the same. Therefore those involved in management will have to stress caution as a means of guaranteeing viable and productive forests while knowledge is accumulating.

Short Rotation

An old forest management system holds new promise for meeting the fuel, food, and fibre demands of bourgeoning humanity. Intensively practised coppice forestry adapted to local conditions, can be an important source notably of fuelwood but also of raw material for reconstituted wood products and a possible source of other fuels such as alcohol or gas.
