Excerpt from Some Effects of Logging and Slash Burning on Physical Soil Properties in the Corvallis Watershed
Other workers in the Douglas-fir region have explored the influence Of logging and slash burning on soils, using somewhat different approaches to the problem. Recently, Tarrant studied the effect of slash burning on rate of water percolation, Size of pore spaces, and bulk density of soils in two separate He found that severe burning lowers the rate of moisture movement, while light burning does not seriously alter the soil in this respect. He showed further that severe burning occurred on less than 5 percent of the total logged and burned area included in his study.

Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book posits that logging and slash burning in municipal watersheds ought to be considered with far greater scrutiny in light of their capacity to negatively impact physical soil properties. The author presents a revelatory case study of three distinct soil types in the Oregon Coast Range following logging and slash burning. The author finds that while overall effects on soil properties were negligible, severely burned areas did exhibit statistically significant alterations in texture, organic matter, and moisture retention, all of which heighten a soil's susceptibility to erosion. Though severely burned areas were uncommon, comprising merely 8% of the total area studied, the author emphasizes that their increased risk of erosion warrants the implementation of judicious slash-burning practices and thorough post-burn erosion control strategies.
