  • The development of 157 tanoak [Lithocarpus densiflorus (Hook. and Am.) Rehd.] and 130 Pacific madrone (Arbutus menziesii Pursh) sprout-clumps 1 to 6 yr after cutting or burning was studied on a range of sites in southwest Oregon. The width and area of sprout-clumps originating from trees ≥ 2-cm stem diameter at 1.4-m height of both species was related to the size of the parent stem and time since cutting (tanoak, r2 = 0.77 and 0.75; Pacific madrone, r2 = 0.84 and 0.83). The sprouting capacity of tanoak develops slowly, and 5 to 6 yr after cutting, sprout-clumps produced by small tanoak 40 to 50 yr old averaged only 37 cm in diameter. Prediction equations, along with stem-diameter distributions of these species in forest stands, can be used to estimate hardwood foliar cover up to 6 yr after cutting.
