FOREST ECOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT NEWSA Newsletter for Department of Forest Ecology and Management Staff, Students and Alumni

Vol. 6, No. 1 March 2003

Tuesday, February 18th ranks as a ‘dou-ble barreled’kind of day – one that mostchairs hope they never experience. Theday began with a dean’s budget meetingwhere I learned just what part of our col-lective hide we would lose to meet thestate-mandated 2003-04 budget cuts.Forest Ecology and Managementreturned a sum in excess of $10,000, butI felt fortunate knowing that otherdepartments were asked to cut evendeeper. Then I listened to GovernorDoyle’s evening budget message – prob-ably the most important political pro-nouncement we have witnessed in manya year. Uncertain economic prospectslocally, nationally, and internationally allconspire to raise belt tightening to newlevels. The University was not spared,and will experience a cut of 6.3% duringthe next biennium. Will it be difficult tocope with even more budget cuts?Absolutely. Will we do it? Absolutely.And I have confidence that in a fewyears when we review the events of thisperiod, we will understand that webecame stronger and more focused onthose educational and professional activ-ities that really matter. Like it or not,fear has a way of focusing our attentionand energy.

Amongst the gloom of Wisconsin’s pres-ent fiscal situation, we can find manythings to celebrate, not the least ofwhich is the success of our students.Although it can be hard to recall ourown youth, it remains true that youngpeople have a resilience that is a joy tobehold. While we may think they facehardship amidst uncertain times, stu-dents are blessed with an optimism that

won’t deter them from following adream or allow them to accept failure.This year’s graduating class is no excep-tion, and most already are immersed ingraduate study, work, or travel, bothhome and abroad. It is also a pleasure toreport that our department successfullycompleted its periodic Society ofAmerican Foresters accreditation review.We met all educational requirements andsatisfied every standard – a fine tributeto the university and our faculty.

Please read and enjoy this newsletter.We like to think we put it together withour alumni and friends in mind. Pleasetake a minute to tell us how you aredoing (and where you are doing it).Unless we hear from you, we are onlytalking to ourselves. Stay connected –we haven’t forgotten you. Please don’tforget us. - Ray Guries, e-mail:rpguries@wisc.edu.

Student News

Current FEM Enrollment

The Dept. of Forest Ecology andManagement currently has 16 studentsworking toward the MS degree and 25PhD students. Undergraduate majorsinclude 38 students pursuing a ForestScience degree and 40 pursuing aRecreation Resources Managementdegree. Undergraduate enrollment in theForest Science degree has been steadyover the past couple of years. However,student interest in the RecreationResources Management degree appearsto be increasing. The number of studentsin our graduate degree program is alsoon the rise in response to the addition ofthree new faculty in recent years.

Welcome to Our New Graduate StudentsWe have two new graduate students in the department this semester - MichaelLabissoniere and Laura Marx. They each have provided a bit of background aboutthemselves. Take a moment to welcome them, either in person or by e-mail.

Michael La Bissoniere <labissoniere@wisc.edu> - My name is Michael LaBissoniere (most people know me as Mike) and I’m a new Master’s Degree candi-date working with Scott Bowe in the wood products area. I grew up in Monona,just southeast of Madison and earned my Bachelor’s of Business Administrationdegree from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater in 1988, majoring in Financeand Real Estate. After working in the commercial real estate industry in southernWisconsin for 12 years, I wanted to change my career direction. After taking intro-ductory courses in plant pathology and forestry, I was fortunate enough to beaccepted as a new graduate student beginning this semester. My wife, Lisa, and Ilive in Middleton, where we spend many hours working on our house and in ourgardens. We also enjoy traveling around the state and nature photography.

Laura Marx <lauramarx@wisc.edu> - I got my BA in biology from KenyonCollege (in Ohio). I’m currently a PhD candidate in my third year of graduateschool at Michigan State University’s Forestry Department. I'm interested in forestecology, but especially in the mechanisms behind ecological patterns like foresttypes and species distributions. My research involves trying to figure out why hem-lock and yellow birch seedlings are preferentially found on decaying wood, andwhether this limitation to a certain kind of substrate can help explain the hemlockpatch structure and the hemlock-yellow birch association in Michigan's UpperPeninsula. I am working with Prof. Craig Lorimer here at UW and have gottensome advice and help on wood identification from the Forest Products Lab. I'm alsotrying to take advantage of the teaching resources here and so am taking a courseon teaching college biology and setting up guest lectures in intro courses. (Grad stu-dents should note that all of the Big Ten schools have a cooperative agreement tomake it easy for grads to study at a different Big Ten school for up to two semes-ters.) I have been involved in various choirs, and I occasionally go swing or ball-room dancing when the opportunity presents itself.

Study receives NRI funding

The UW-Madison, Department of ForestEcology and Management has beenawarded a National Research Initiative(NRI) grant for $168,500. The principalinvestigator is Professor Donald Field.The two-year project will examine thesocial transformation of a rural area inan amenity rich natural resource context.

In particular, the study will examine theimpact of population growth associatedwith housing/residential development(both seasonal and permanent land own-ership) on local communities and how itaffects nearby national forest and parkmanagement. The study will take placein southwest Utah and the study resultswill be compared to the results of a simi-lar study Field and colleagues are doingin the Pine Barrens in northwesternWisconsin. Co-investigators for the newNRI project are Dr. Richard Krannich,Utah State University, and Dr. A.E.Luloff, Pennsylvania State University.

Kemp Station Adds NewLodging for NorthwoodsScientists and Students

Whether it was for Summer Camp, aweekend field trip, or a Northwoodsresearch project, there’s a good chancethat your academic travels took you toKemp Station. More and more peoplehave been making the trip to Kemp inrecent years. So much so that the Stationis adding new lodging to accommodatethe growing number of scientists andstudents working at the Station. “We’veseen a terrific increase in research andteaching activity,” says Tom Steele,Kemp Superintendent. “In the mid-1990s, we completed a major lab reno-vation project and since then our use hasgrown dramatically.” Demand fromusers now exceeds Station capacity.During the busy field season, scientistsand students from Wisconsin and acrossNorth America call Kemp Station home.Indeed, the Station is developing anational and international reputation forsupporting innovative research and edu-cation.

To address its lodging shortage, theStation is in the preliminary stages ofconstructing a new dormitory. The struc-ture will house 18-20 people and provideyear-round accommodations. In addition,the building will include a comfortablelounge, kitchen and dining facilities, andmeeting area. “Kemp is truly a uniqueplace and we want a building that fits

the history, setting, and mission of KempStation,” says Steele. “We want a build-ing that not only allows students to studyconservation, but a building that putsconservation into practice.” Featuressuch as “green” construction techniques,energy efficient heating and ventilation,and innovative day lighting will makethis a state-of-the-art facility.

Funding comes from a grant from theNational Science Foundation’s FieldStation & Marine Laboratory Programand from the generous support of numer-ous private citizens. Steele notes it is theprivate funding that makes this project areality. “We are most grateful for thesupport provided by the friends of KempStation. We have raised over $500,000to date but still have $100,000 to go.”When completed, the new building willgo far to advance the Station’s missionof natural resources research, instruction,and public education.

If you would like to learn more aboutthe project or wish to contribute to thebuilding fund, please contact Tom Steeleat 715-356-9070 or via email attsteele@wisc.edu.

Model shows impact of firesuppression on red pine

The current practice of forest fire sup-pression may have a dramatic effect onthe forest landscape in the BoundaryWaters Canoe Area (BWCA) ofMinnesota, reports Rob Scheller, FEMgraduate student. Scheller, who is work-ing with Professor David Mladenoff,has developed a model that shows thelong-term effects of fire suppression inthe BWCA as well as the expected out-come if regular burnings are allowed.

Scheller reports that before people set-tled the area in the early 1900s, fires

Year in Germany was experience of a lifetimeby Amy JahnkeStanding alone at the international ter-minal in Chicago’s O’Hare airport, Irealized I had no idea why I was there,but it was the best feeling of my life.There are some things that you just geta gut feeling about, and for me, study-ing abroad was one of them. As Iboarded the plane, destinationFreiburg, Germany, I didn’t knowwhat would happen to me in the next11 months, but I was ready for anunforgettable experience.

Freiburg lies in southwestern Germany at the foot of the Black Forest, close toboth the French and Swiss borders. As Madison’s Sister City, Freiburg plays hostto a similar liberal, college-town atmosphere. Most German students there opt tolive in university housing, which consists of apartment-style, co-ed dormitories. Ilived in a newly renovated, seven-bedroom apartment with five Germans and oneTurkish student. We all got to know one another well enough to cram into our liv-ing/dining space to watch “Die Simpsons” together, but not well enough to tolerateshowering at the same time in the two side-by-side shower stalls with transparentdoors.

My first semester at Albert-Ludwigs-Universität was spent studying Germanhistory, literature, and music to improve my language skills. The second semester Ibraved German forestry courses. The forestry classes were held as one-week mod-ules, consisting of 8 hours of class each day and a test or paper due each Friday. Iwent on several week-long class excursions to the Rhine Valley, France, theSwabian Alb, and the Black Forest region around Freiburg to study tree physiology,ecology, and forest management.

One of the more noteworthy experiences I had was traveling to 10 Europeancountries during the two-month semester break. The most memorable two weeks ofthat were spent with my dad driving around in a tiny German rental car throughparts of Germany, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria, Czech Republic and Poland.We saw some incredible countryside, celebrated my 21st birthday in Munich, foundthe town in Poland where my great-grandparents were born, and had a few trafficincidents on the Autobahn.

It may sound glamorous to just hop on a plane and fly to a foreign country fora year to live, study, travel and learn another language, but it’s really not what Iwould consider glamorous. Every day was a new adventure, with different chal-lenges arriving like high-speed trains and learning experiences around every cob-blestone street corner. If you ask me now why I went, my answer is why not? Thedecision is not something I dare to question because I’m thanking myself everydayfor having made it.

started naturally, mainly by lightningbolts, and swept through the area every50-100 years. The fires reduced compet-ing vegetation and triggered the releaseof seeds from pine cones, which enabledthe surviving trees to reproduce moresuccessfully.

The model suggests that while a fireevery 300 years would allow red pinesto persist, jack pine, another tree speciesdependent on fire for reproduction,could eventually be lost. Fires every 50-100 years, as they once occurred natural-ly, would maintain tree diversity. A fireevery 50 years would actually increasethe number of red pines, but continuedfire suppression would lead to the disap-pearance of red pine, jack pine, aspen,and birch trees within 300 years. “If fullfire suppression continues, the forestmay never recover and red pine may belost as a locally dominant species,”states Scheller.

Scheller recently presented his findingsat the Ecological Society of America’sannual meeting. His research is fundedby the USDA Forest Service, whichplans to use the model to develop along-term perspective on fire and forestmanagement.

Remote Sensing Brings Views of Wisconsin Lakes to YourComputer Desktop

It is now possible for anyone with inter-net access to sit down at a computer andaccess images of Wisconsin lakes cap-tured by satellites 438 miles above theearth. UW-Madison researchers at theEnvironmental Remote Sensing Center(ERSC), along with their cooperators,have completed the first satellite-basedinventory of water clarity for the largest8,000 lakes in the state. The inventoryis available to the public in map form onthe Web, where it is possible to zoom infor a close look at your favorite lake orgroup of lakes. You can view the lakeclarity images as well as other ERSCimages at their Web site:www.ersc.wisc.edu.

“Our research aims to integrate satellitedata into the state’s day-to-day lakemanagement programs. This won’teliminate the need for conventionalwater quality monitoring, but it willgreatly increase the benefits of ground-based sampling,” says ThomasLillesand, director of ERSC and a pro-fessor in FEM and the Gaylord NelsonInstitute for Environment Studies.

There appears to be a great deal of inter-est in the images. Just after informationabout the Web site was issued in a pressrelease “. . . we had hundreds of newusers of the interactive map, so manythat it crashed our server,” saysLillesand. The project is funded by aNASA initiative called the Satellite LakeObservatory Initiative.

Communities and NaturalResources: A Word aboutSeasonal Residents in the PineBarrens of Wisconsin

Prof. Donald Field and graduate stu-dents Greg Clendenning and DanaJensen are continuing with theirresearch in the Pine Barrens of Burnettand Washburn Counties. These twocounties are particularly rich in naturalamenities, with over 1,500 lakes andthousands of acres of forests found with-in their borders. Both counties havebeen experiencing rapid populationgrowth and development pressures overthe past few decades, largely because ofthe abundant natural amenities. Duringthe 1990s Burnett County's populationincreased by 20 percent while WashburnCounty's population increased by 16 per-cent. Even more remarkable is thegrowth in the number of seasonalhomes. Since 1970, the number of sea-sonal homes has increased by 76 percentin Burnett County and by 112 percent byWashburn County. With the surveycomplete and data analysis under way,we are learning more about the landown-ers in these two counties, especially theseasonal homeowners.

Most seasonal residents areMinnesotans, who represent 61% of theseasonal respondents. Wisconsin con-tributes 22% of the seasonal respondentswhile only a small number of seasonalhomeowners, 8%, come from Illinois.Not surprisingly, most seasonal home-owners, 77%, own waterfront homeswhile only 35% of permanent residentslive along lakes or streams. Seasonalresidents also are wealthier as a groupand have attained higher levels of educa-tion when compared to permanent resi-dents.

Seasonal residents spend an average of72 days a year at their seasonal homes.Summer is still the time when the homeis used the most (31 days per year), butseasonal homes are still visited in theother three seasons: 9 days a year in thewinter, 14 days a year in the spring and19 days a year in the fall. In addition,many seasonal homeowners plan toretire or relocate to the Pine Barrens.When asked if they will relocate to theirseasonal home within the next 5 years orsometime after 5 years, 25% of seasonalrespondents replied that they are some-what or very likely to relocate within 5years and 41% after 5 years. This trendtowards relocating to the Barrens is alsoapparent in the permanent resident popu-lation, as 16% of all permanent respon-dents were once seasonal residents. -Greg Clendenning

know I’m an odd one. My daughter says, “Dad, youhave an illness!” I get a lot of strange looks when talk-

ing to foresters and landowners and I excitedly remark “Thisis just the best Armillaria root rot!” or “You have the nicestEutypella canker I have ever seen!” or “Cherry leaf spot doesnot get better than this!” Sometimes, I find it hard to see theforest through the disease! But as a forest pathologist I seetree diseases not just as impediments to our managementobjectives, but interesting biological interactions and power-ful ecosystem influences. And frankly sometimes a goodexample of a disease symptom or fungal fruiting body is abeauty to behold!

Growing up I came to know plants through trips toBoerner Botanical Gardens near my home in Milwaukee andI learned to love forests during camping trips throughout thestate. I earned a BS in Forest Biology (‘76) from the StateUniversity of New York, College of Environmental Scienceand Forestry at Syracuse, and then MS (‘83) and PhD (‘85)degrees studying forest pathology here in Russell Labs in theDepartment of Plant Pathology. After a post-doc at NorthCarolina State studying maladies of boreal-montane spruceand fir and almost five years as forest pathologist in thePennsylvania Bureau of Forestry, I landed back in Madisonto begin my faculty career in 1992.

Students seem to appreciate my enthusiasm in my class-es. “Insects and Diseases in Forest Management” (co-taughtwith forest entomologist Ken Raffa) and “Diseases ofLandscape Trees and Shrubs” are two twists on similar

pathology subjects. Forestry undergrads are most commonin the former; Horticulture, Landscape Architecture, and nontraditional students (green industry professionals) pre-dominate in the latter class taught on Monday nights. I try toprovide a learning opportunity that will change what studentssee and how they think. One of the best compliments a stu-dent ever gave me was to say, “After your class, I just can’twalk through the woods the same way anymore!”

My research group focuses on diseases caused by fungalpathogens of pines and poplars. We use methods rangingfrom field surveys, to microscopic examinations, to molecu-lar genetic analyses attempting to understand diversity infungi and how this pathogen diversity and host conditioninfluence diseases. We also respond to new or increasinglyimportant diseases caused by new, invasive pathogens orthose fungi that exploit changes in the climate or forest prac-tice. I enjoy learning how forest management practicesinfluence disease development, and how disease develop-ment influences forest management practices. Much of whatwe learn has direct implications for tree health and can beput to use by forest and landscape tree managers. I have anactive outreach program (i.e., there is NO Extension facultyplant pathologist with a commitment to nurseries, ornamentalor shade trees, or forest trees!?!) and am happy when resultsof our research allow managers to achieve ecological, eco-nomic, recreational, or other chosen objectives. As my let-terhead indicates, “Forest pathology helps to keepWisconsin’s trees and forests green and growing!”
