Answer from: Quest

clearcutting reproduces a new even-aged stand by completely removing the mature stand.

clearcutting as a silvicultural treatment has several characteristics:

it causes a sudden environmental change

it removes the seed source from the regeneration area

the configuration of the clearcut may affect seed dispersal

it begins a new rotation

it will eliminate some pests that require forest cover

overall, it temporarily removes the forest cover, transforming the forest community and environment.

clearcutting followed by artificial (seeded or planted) regeneration has several advantages:

we can avoid delay in restocking the site

we can introduce a selected species, seed source, and genotype

we can control arrangement and spacing

we can achieve uniformity in the new stand

we can overcome the problems associated with securing sufficient natural regeneration.

the shelterwood method involves the removal of most of the mature stand at the end of the rotation, but a portion of the mature stand is left standing. the shelterwood method serves three basic purposes:

to prepare the stand for production of abundant seed

to modify the environment in a way that promotes germination and survival of the selected species

to build up the amount and size of advance regeneration to ensure the prompt restocking of the new stand following overstory removal.

the shelterwood method involves a sequence of 3 cuttings:

preparatory cuttings: make the seed trees more vigorous and set the stage for regeneration. see our thinning page for more information.

establishment/seed cuttings: open up enough vacant growing space to allow establishment of the new regeneration.

removal cuttings: uncover the new crop to allow it to fill the growing space.

the residual trees in the shelterwood must:

be sturdy and windfirm

be able to survive exposure

flower and reproduce seed

be the best trees of the mature stand

keep in mind that the shelter trees must not occupy the entire site. a void must be created in order to make room for the new regeneration. the amount of shelter to leave will depend on the following factors:

species characteristics (seeding and shelter requirements)

the number of cuttings in the cutting sequence (1, 2, or 3)

landowner objectives

the size of the area to be regenerated

the final removal harvest level required to be profitable

the shelter must be removed before it impedes the growth of the new stand or threatens its survival.

Based on your approved case, create fictitious digital evidence. you may use logs from your own computer (no personal information) as a guide or search the internet for samples. these samples do not have to be technically correct, but there must be a reasonable presumption that this information would exist, supported by a reference. document who, when, and how the evidence was obtained. remember, you are creating fictitious examples, so refer to prior reading or examples of how digital evidence was collected. if necessary, refer to the "who" as a "systems administrator" and ensure the fictitious person is identified and referenced in your investigation. digital evidence must meet each of the following criteria: some of your digital evidence must be retrieved by computer forensics. some of your digital evidence must be retrieved from log files. digital evidence must contain information to support who, what, when, where, and how the cyber-crime was committed. present digital copies of your evidence in text files, screen shots, or pdfs.

Which of the following is an example of the treatment technique for ocd called exposure and response prevention (erp)? a. callie has a hoarding compulsion. she becomes anxious whenever she has to throw something away; she even keeps stuff that she doesn't need and will never use. her therapist has arranged for callie's unnecessary belongings to be discarded of when she is away from home. b. carrie has an obsessive fear of contamination which has led to compulsive hand washing. her therapist is treating her by making her touch dirty laundry but not allowing her to wash her hands following for increasingly longer periods of time. c. kelly has religious obsessions. she feels that if she doesn't read biblical passages every hour of the day, she will do something evil. her therapist is treating her by having her attend religious services more frequently so that good thoughts will replace the bad ones. d. kerry has an obsessive fear of contamination which has led to compulsive hand washing rituals. her therapist is treating her by forcing her to wash her hands repeatedly, even when she doesn't feel anxious.
