Digging Into Canadian Soils - An Introduction to Soil Science
Resource
Written entirely by members of the Canadian Society of Soil Science, "Digging into Canadian Soils: An Introduction to Soil Science" provides an introduction to the core disciplines of soil science...
Diseases of Black Spruce in Ontario
Resource
Over 70 diseases have been found and recorded on black spruce ( Picea mariana [Mill.] B.S.P.) in Ontario (Davis and Myren 1990). They range from vigorous pathogens capable of causing death or serious...
Does Wood Mulch Trigger Microbially Mediated Positive Plant-Soil Feedback in Degraded Boreal Forest Sites? A Post Hoc Study
Resource
Introduction: Reforestation of degraded lands in the boreal forest is challenging and depends on the direction and strength of the plant-soil feedback (PSF). Methods: Using a gradient in tree...
Domains of Scale in Cumulative Effects of Energy Sector Development on Boreal Birds
Resource
We estimated cumulative effects of energy sector development on distributions of sixteen migratory songbird species at multiple spatial scales within the boreal region of Alberta, Canada, and...
Drivers and Impacts of the Record-Breaking 2023 Fire Season
Resource
A video outlining the major drivers and impacts of the record-breaking 2023 wildfire season in Canada. A PDF of the PowerPoint can be found here.
Dynamic Patterns in Winter Ungulate Browse Succession in the Boreal Plains of Alberta
Resource
Examines changes in winter browse richness, evenness, abundance, and community composition, as well as their use (browse levels) by moose and white-tailed deer, over a 150-year post-wildfire period
Early Regeneration Dynamics of Pure Black Spruce and Aspen Forests after Wildfire in Boreal Alberta, Canada
Resource
Research Highlights: Black spruce ( Picea mariana Mill.) and trembling aspen ( Populus tremuloides Michx.) both regenerated vigorously after wildfire. However, pure semi-upland black spruce stands are...
Eastern Canadian Temperate Deciduous Forest
Resource
The Canadian National Vegetation Classification (CNVC) is an ecological classification of natural and semi-natural Canadian vegetation. The classification is a hierarchical taxonomy, describing...
Eastern North American Temperate Hardwood – Conifer Forest
Resource
The Canadian National Vegetation Classification (CNVC) is an ecological classification of natural and semi-natural Canadian vegetation. The classification is a hierarchical taxonomy, describing...
Ecologically-based Criteria to Assess the Impact and Recovery of Seismic Lines: The Importance of Width, Regeneration, and Seismic Density
Resource
We conducted a series of surveys to evaluate wildlife responses to different types of seismic lines in bogs, conifer‐dominated, mixedwood and deciduous forests in the western boreal forest. Research...

Economic Impacts of Short Rotation Woody Crops in Canada
Resource
Canada is seeking cost-effective means to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions, particularly CO2. One of the promising means is the short rotation woody crops (SRWC) plantation, a silvicultural approach...
Effect of Seed Production and Soil Scarification on the Natural Regeneration of a Second-Growth Fir Stand in the Lower St. Lawrence Region
Resource
This study examines the relationship between seed production, soil scarification and seedling establishment in balsam fir ( Abies balsamea [L.] Mill.) and white spruce ( Picea glauca [Moench] Voss)...
Effects of Cell Size and Spacing on Root Density and Field Performance of Container-Reared Black Spruce
Resource
This study examined the effects of nursery rearing in an array of 51 individual fabricated frames that supported a range of six growing cell sizes at 11 plant spacings in all possible combinations. A...

Effects of Elemental Sulfur on Soil pH and Growth of Saskatoon Berry (Amelanchier alnifolia) and Beaked Hazelnut (Corylus cornuta) Seedlings
Resource
The land disturbed by open-pit oil sands mining must be restored to support the survival and growth of native boreal plants. Because tailings sand and sodic shale overburden are commonly used as an...
Effects of Fire Severity and Woody Debris on Tree Regeneration for Exploratory Well Pads in Jack Pine (Pinus banksiana) Forests
Resource
This study compares the effects of wildfire and local variation in the amount of residual woody debris on natural regeneration in jack pine on exploratory well pads in Alberta’s boreal forest.
