Not all great American trees survived the Industrial Revolution. American chestnut and old growth longleaf pine, for example, simply do not exist in the modern American forest. The long-lost beauty and strength of these woods only become available as beams are salvaged and recycled from historic sources. Longleaf Lumber resaws massive reclaimed wooden timbers sourced from industrial and agricultural demolition sites, providing home and business owners with unsurpassable clean-cut beams....

We have been able to reclaim urban forest deadfall from towns in Colorado and California. . Our inventory of urban forest reclaimed inventory includes cottonwood and black walnut from Boulder...

Highrise Harvest: : Vacant Buildings Ripe with Resources - Lab Notes
https://www.fpl.fs.fed.us/labnotes/?p=24904... [Reclaimed Wood] [] [Report] 2015
Tom Owens
Highrise Harvest: Vacant Buildings Ripe with Resources. Baltimore, Maryland, a city of more than 600,000 people locked in the largest urban corridor of the United States, seems like an unlikely place to find the rich resources of the forest. Look a little closer, or rather, inside of, the nearly 16,000 vacant homes and buildings however, and a different kind of landscape emerges a landscape that researchers at the Forest Products Laboratory (FPL) see great potential in Behind the crumbling bri...

Hedonic analysis of forest pest invasion: the Case of emerald ash borer | Publications | SRS
https://www.srs.fs.usda.gov/pubs/58999... [Invasive Species] [] [Journal Article] 2019
Li, Xiaoshu; Holmes, Thomas P.; Boyle, Kevin J.; Crocker, Ellen V; Nelson, C. Dana
The emerald ash borer (EAB) was first detected in North America in 2002, and since its introduction, this invasive pest has killed millions of ash trees. While EAB kills native North American ash trees in all settings, its impacts have been especially large in urban areas where ash has been a dominant street tree, especially in residential areas. While some management costs, such as insecticide treatment, tree removal, or tree replacement, are relatively straightforward to compute, the impact th...

Walton, Jeffrey T.
Difficulties with estimating city-wide urban forest cover change from national, remotely-sensed tree canopy maps. This publication is available only online. Abstract Two datasets of percent urban tree canopy cover were compared. The first dataset was based on a 1991 AVHRR forest density map. The second was the US Geological Survey s National Land Cover Database (NLCD) 2001 sub-pixel tree canopy. A comparison of these two tree canopy layers was conducted in 36 census designated places of wes...

Across the state of Texas, from small towns to urban neighborhoods, trees play a vital role in our communities. Trees help give a community its sense of place, and provide environmental, economic and social benefits. Community forestry involves the selection, planting and long-term care of the trees where we live—in our cities, neighborhoods and communities. Trees growing in our cities are an important asset, and an integral part of the infrastructure that must be managed in order to sustain...

Using reclaimed lumber and wood flooring in construction : measuring environmental impact using life-cycle inventory analysis | Treesearch
https://www.fs.usda.gov/treesearch/pubs/37173... [Reclaimed Wood] [Environment and Sustainability] [Conference Paper] 2010
Richard D. Bergman; Hongmei Gu; Robert H. Falk; Thomas R. Napier
With green building concepts becoming widespread in the construction field, building practices and materials are being examined for their environmental impact. Reusing building materials has a distinct advantage over using newly manufactured materials because these reclaimed materials avoid greenhouse gas emissions associated with new (virgin) material manufacturing. In a wood-framed building, building materials reclaimed during deconstructing (dismantling) may include framing lumber and wood fl...
