figure 0.3. Effects of thinning Douglas-ftr. Stands are about 40 years okld Photograph takennear Hoskins, Oregon (Curtis and Marshall 1986).G.3.A. (treatment 9) = no thinning. No understory: average tree diamneter at 4.5 feet is about 12inches.G.3.B. (treatment 7) = lightly thinned. Some understory development: average diameter is about18 inches.490
0.3.C. (treatment 1) = heavy thinning. Considerable understory: aver-age diameter about 20 inches.See Figure G.5 and G.6.Figure G.4. An unthinned,dense Douglas-fir standabout 70 years old, with nounderstory. Carefulthinning and making smallopenings. followed byestablishing shade-tole-ranttree species, would aid thedevelopment of amultistoried stand and owlhabitat. Thinnings atearlier ages would haveresulted in trees with largerdiameter stems, longercrowns, development of anunderstory, as well ascommercial wood production.491
