Nine Years of in Situ Soil Warming and Topography Impact the Temperature Sensitivity and Basal Respiration Rate of the Forest Floor in a Canadian Boreal Forest
Resource
The forest floor of boreal forest stores large amounts of organic C that may react to a warming climate and increased N deposition. It is therefore crucial to assess the impact of these factors on the...
Normes de remise en état – En existe-t-il une passe-partout?
Resource
This note explores lesson from EMEND that can inform reclamation approaches that embrace variation, as opposed to a one-size-fits-all approach.
Novel Aerial Photography as an Aid to Sampling Secondary Structure in Pine Stands
Resource
This project describes a new method for sampling secondary structure in beetle-attacked pine stands and reports on a test of its accuracy. The method consists of interpreting aerial photos taken when...
Noyer cendré : quelles sont ses chances face au chancre?
Resource
The continuing spread of butternut canker constitutes the greatest threat to the survival of butternut trees, which have been protected under the Species at Risk Act since 2005. Furthermore, growing...
Oak Wilt
Resource
Oak wilt is a tree disease caused by the fungus Bretziella fagacearum. The fungus is widespread throughout the eastern United States and, as of 2021, found within 600 m of the Canadian border near...
Old-Growth Forests in Canada
Resource
This pamphlet is about old-growth forests in Canada. It includes a map that shows the Forest Regions of Canada and provides examples of different old-growth forest types in some of these regions.
Opportunities and Limitations of Thinning to Increase Resistance and Resilience of Trees and Forests to Global Change
Resource
We reviewed recent literature to identify the positive and negative effects of thinning on both stand- and treelevel resistance and resilience to four stressors that are expected to increase in...
Optisource : un outil pour optimiser le transfert des semences
Resource
Can seedlings intended for reforestation be planted anywhere, regardless of the seed source from which they were obtained? The Optisource software was developed to help forest managers answer this...
Optisource: A Tool for Optimizing Seed Transfer
Resource
Can seedlings intended for reforestation be planted anywhere, regardless of the seed source from which they were obtained? The Optisource software was developed to help forest managers answer this...
Peat Depth as a Control on Sphagnum Moisture Stress During Seasonal Drought
Resource
A critical ‘threshold’ peat depth specific for different hydrogeological and hydroclimatic regions can be used to assess what peatlands are especially vulnerable to climate change mediated drought.
Peat Surface Compression Reduces Smouldering Fire Potential as a Novel Fuel Treatment for Boreal Peatlands
Resource
This resource is available on an external database and may require a paid subscription to access it. It is included on the CCLM to support our goal of capturing and sharing the breadth of all...
Peat Swamp Hydrological Connectivity and Runoff Vary by Hydrogeomorphic Setting: Implications for Carbon Storage
Resource
Despite their importance in carbon cycling and catchment runoff dynamics, the hydrology of temperate peat swamps in response to changing hydrometeorological conditions is largely understudied. We...
Peatland Drainage and Improvement Program (Phase 2): Controlling Water Table Levels to Enhance Tree Establishment and Growth
Resource
Three experimental forest drainage sites were established in Alberta’s boreal forest to determine the effects of lowered water tables on soils, local hydrology, ground vegetation composition and tree...
Peatlands Promote Fire Refugia In Boreal Forests Of Northern Alberta, Canada
Resource
Abstract In the boreal forests of North America, large wildfires often leave residual patches of unburned vegetation, termed fire refugia, which can affect post-fire ecosystem processes. Although...
Peatlands Reduce Fire Severity and Promote Fire Refugia in Boreal Forests
News
