Title	Growth of ponderosa pine stands in relation to mountain pine beetle susceptibility:
Contributor	Obedzinski, R. A. ;<br> Rocky Mountain Research Station (Fort Collins, Colo.) ;<br> United States. Forest Service.
Description	Ten-year diameter and basal area growth were determined for partially cut stands and 4 locations. Average diameters in the partially cut plots generally increase by 1 inch of more, while average diameter in the uncut controls increase by 0.9 inches or less. Individual tree growth is discussed in relation to potential susceptibility to mountain pine beetle infestation. Basal area increase ranged from 0.9 to 1.9 ft²/acre/yr in partially cut plots, while basal area increase in the control plots ranged from 0.4 to 1.4 ft²/acre/yr. Endemic mountain pine beetle infestation and snow breakage accounted for most of the mortality on the plots, which decreased the residual basal area and basal area growth. Increases in basal area are used to estimate the length of time required for various stand densities to reach susceptibility thresholds for mountain pine beetle infestation. Stand marking may influence future susceptibility to beetle infestations.
