Impacts of timber harvesting on soil physical properties in wetlands
Six wet pine flat sites were salvage logged following Hurricane Hugo in the fall of 1989. High soil moisture conditions during salvage operations resulted in soil compaction and deep rutting (puddling) on primary skid trails. Two studies were established to assess the effects of trafficking on soil...
