Forest Service Sudden Oak Death study

Record details#

Neutral description#

The report identifies Jay Smith treatment conditions and comparative observations over time. This entry directs readers to the federal publication and does not substitute a new interpretation for the report.

Publication and research context#

This 2017 paper appears on pages 15–18 of the Proceedings of the Sudden Oak Death Sixth Science Symposium, PSW-GTR-255. Its Jay Smith figure captions describe host removal with and without prescribed fire. The environmental-history article summarizes the documented treatments without presenting the study as an assessment of current conditions.

The 2006 State Parks notice provides the earlier project record. It should remain distinct from the later research paper: one identifies an agency project, the other reports observations.

Source and bibliographic discrepancy#

The Forest Service catalog entry and its linked PDF agree on the paper's subject and publication year, but list different authors. The PDF byline reads Y. Valachovic, C. Lee, D. Stark, and B. Twieg. The catalog lists Yana Valachovic, Richard Cobb, and Brendan Twieg. This library records the discrepancy and uses the PDF byline when identifying the consulted paper.

The corrected title below follows the publication itself. No missing author names or alternative bibliographic history have been inferred. Return to the Jay Smith Road environmental overview for the wider source sequence.
