1 Crown Responses to Fertilization in Juvenile Western Redcedar and Western Hemlock R.W. Negrave Research Silviculturist BC Forest Service
2 Crown Response to Fertilization: Focus on Cw and Hw Part I: What we know about crown response to fertilization Part II: Response of juvenile Cw and Hw stands to fertilization during establishment: Stand level foliage mass Tree level crown structure of Cw
3 Part I: What we know
4 Crowns and Resources: Context Forest growth a function of: Resource supply (soil and solar resources) Resource capture (roots, crowns) Resource use efficiency (foliage)
5 Crown Response to Fertilization Crown response a function of: Foliage amount Foliar efficiency Foliage deployment
6 Foliage Response to Fertilization Fertilization may change foliage: Amount Proportion Efficiency Deployment Response varies with: species, structure, site, time
7 Part II: Crown Response in Juvenile Cw and Hw
8 Study Outline Salal Cedar Hemlock Integrated Research Program (SCHIRP) on northern Vancouver Island Factorial experiment: Species ( (Cw, Hw) Fertilization ( (F0, F1) Density ( (500, 1500 and 2500 sph) Experiment was paired on two sites
9 Study Questions Would fertilization and high establishment density improve stand growth? What are site differences between Cedar Hemlock ( (CH)) and Hemlock Amabilis Fir (HA)) stands? How do treatments affect structure and its relation to growth?
10 Study Design: Main Trial Completely randomized block design with four replications Permanent sample plots with 64 trees in each treatment level replicate Continued re-measurement since establishment in 1988: 15-year measurements in 2002 (10 yrs since last fertilization)
11 Sampling: Tree-Level Study Individual trees sampled from density levels across three nutrient regimes: CH-F0 < CH-F1 < HA-F1 Sampling focussed on Cw: 84 Cw and 41Hw Covariate analysis to detect effects other than size (allocation/allometry)
12 Design: Tree-Level Study Mass prediction equations developed: lnyij = ln β0i + ln β1ixj + ln εij Equations used to calculate stand level total and component masses (r 2 values ranged from 0.81 to 0.98) Analysis of variance to examine tree-level effects in Cw

24 Individual Cw Foliage Mass Foliage mass decreased with increasing Density: Foliage Mass (kg) 500 sph: 5.30c 1500 sph: 3.83b 2500 sph: 2.71a
