Sound wood residue left after experimental cuttings in old-growth redwood

Abstract

An estimate was made of the sound wood logging residue remaining after three different experimental cuttings on the Redwood Experimental Forest, north coastal California. The statistics on volume, size, and soundness classes are indicators of what to expect where similar volumes are harvested. The information can be useful to those planning use of logging residues, particularly in developing logging techniques and in deciding on machinery and what to do about initial processing.
