Thinning and Prescribed Fire and Projected Trends in Wood Product Potential, Financial Return, and Fire Hazard in Montana. Barbour, R J., Fight, R. D, Christensen, G. a, Pinjuv, G. L, & Nagubadi, R. V 2004. ISBN: PNW-GTR-606
doi  abstract   bibtex   
This work was undertaken under a joint fire science project “Assessing the need; costs; and potential benefits of prescribed fire and mechanical treatments to reduce fire hazard.” This paper compares the future mix of timber products under two treat- ment scenarios for the state of Montana. We developed and demonstrated an ana- lytical method that uses readily available tools to evaluate pre- and posttreatment stand conditions; size; species; and volume of merchantable wood removed during thinnings; size and volume of submerchantable wood cut during treatments; and financial returns of prescriptions that are applied repeatedly over a 90-year period.
