3 CA Forest Pest Council Standing dead and dying trees fire insects
4 CA Forest Pest Council Types / agents of losses NOT talking about: Pre-existing conditions Hidden defect
5 CA Forest Pest Council Types / agents of losses insects fungi (stain and decay) weather check breakage char
6 Insects CA Forest Pest Council
7 CA Forest Pest Council Influential insects Bark beetles phloem feeder Ambrosia beetles sapwood Wood borers heartwood borer
8 CA Forest Pest Council Factors influencing beetle activity season bark thickness location on bole fresh phloem/cambial tissue
9 CA Forest Pest Council Fungi stain sap rot
10 CA Forest Pest Council External influences for fungal growth temperature moisture oxygen
11 CA Forest Pest Council blue stain fungi under suitable conditions mm / week radially up to 50 mm / week longitudinally
12 Weather check CA Forest Pest Council
13 CA Forest Pest Council Factors influencing extent of weather check size of trees or logs position in tree bark thickness heat environmental conditions
14 Other loss factors CA Forest Pest Council
15 Char CA Forest Pest Council
16 CA Forest Pest Council
17 CA Forest Pest Council
18 CA Forest Pest Council Significant Variables primary secondary crown scorch volume crown consumption volume diameter breast height presence of beetles ground fire severity min. bole scorch height
19 CA Forest Pest Council MANY FACTORS AFFECT THE RATE OF DETERIORATION
20 Tree related characteristics species diameter bark thickness percent sapwood rate of growth age CA Forest Pest Council
21 CA Forest Pest Council Moving up the bole: diameter decreases sapwood width decreases age decreases bark thickness decreases ring width increases
22 CA Forest Pest Council
23 CA Forest Pest Council Site Conditions elevation precipitation slope aspect
24 Severity of disturbance CA Forest Pest Council
25 Timing (e.g. season) CA Forest Pest Council
26 CA Forest Pest Council Related effects loosens bark increases drying of sapwood could decrease sap rot increases weather check could spread fungal spores

28 CA Forest Pest Council Volume loss: function of extent deterioration Value loss: function of product
29 CA Forest Pest Council Evaluating deterioration rates resulting from wildfire (volume loss)

40 CA Forest Pest Council SPECIES Douglas-fir Grand fir Subalpine fir Western larch Lodgepole pine Ponderosa pine Englemann spruce
41 CA Forest Pest Council Douglas-fir Year 1: wood borers, wood peckers little stain, check, decay Year 2: weather checks little stain Year 3: all sapwood stained small amount sapwood decay Year 4: most sapwood decayed top breakage
