Recent Climate Change has Driven Divergent Hydrological Shifts in High-latitude Peatlands
Resource
High-latitude peatlands are changing rapidly in response to climate change, including permafrost thaw. Here, we reconstruct hydrological conditions since the seventeenth century using testate amoeba...
Reclamation Prescriptions—Does One Size Fit All?
Resource
This note explores lesson from EMEND that can inform reclamation approaches that embrace variation, as opposed to a one-size-fits-all approach.
Recommended Procedures for Rooting Ground Hemlock (Taxus Canadensis) Cuttings
Resource
Methods for greenhouse propagation of rooted cuttings of Canada yew ( Taxus canadensis) are described. Specific details on the collection and handling of cuttings, greenhouse culture, and post-rooting...
Reducing Stem Rot in Living Black Spruce in Ontario
Resource
This technical note provides forest managers with some knowledge of the characteristics of stem rot in black spruce and how its occurrence is related to various factors.
Re-establishment of Peatland Vegetation Following Surface Leveling of Decommissioned In Situ Oil Mining Infrastructures

Regeneration Behaviour of Competing Plants After Clear-Cutting
Resource
Secondary succession, which follows forest harvesting, begins with the growth of herbs, shrubs, and trees and eventually leads to a mature forest. However, young, commercially important trees are...
Regression Models Describe and Predict Benefits of Vegetation Management for Black Spruce
Resource
To better quantify the long-term growth response of black spruce to weed control, individual outplants were sampled up to 11 years after planting as part of a vegetation management and stock...
Remote Sensing of Natural Disturbance Caused by Insect Defoliation and Dieback
Resource
The objective of this report is to review the requirements for disturbance information, the manifestation of damage patterns that may be encountered, and to provide an overview of remote sensing...

Resource Availability and Physiological Response of Black Spruce to Scarification in Two Climatic Regions of Québec (Canada)
Resource
Scarification is a mechanical site preparation technique designed to create microsites that will favor the growth of planted tree seedlings after clearcutting. However, the positive growth response of...
Restoration and Reclamation of Boreal Ecosystems: Attaining Sustainable Development
Resource
This book is composed of chapters that reveal our current state of knowledge on reclamation and restoration of these boreal ecosystems. The boreal forest, or taiga, is a mosaic of lakes, peatlands...
Restoration Approach Influences Carbon Exchange at In-Situ Oil Sands Exploration Sites in East-Central Alberta
Resource
This article outlines the results of monitoring two restored oil sands exploration sites, and discusses the effectiveness of treatments on tree recovery and greenhouse gas emissions.
Restoration of Boreal Peatland Impacted by an In-situ Oil Sands Well-pad 1: Vegetation Response
Resource
The prompt introduction and establishment of peatland donor species through moss layer transfer technique was crucial to the overall re-establishment of peatland vegetation.
Rethinking Restoration Ecology of Tallgrass Prairie: Considering Belowground Components of Tallgrass Restoration in Southern Ontario
Resource
Agriculture, urban development, and woody encroachment have reduced the North American tallgrass prairie ecosystem to less than 1% of its historical extent. The remnants of this now rare habitat are...
