An Annotated Bibliography of Boreal Mixedwood Literature of the Prairie Provinces
Resource
This bibliography contains 787 references dealing with boreal mixedwood forests and their management. Citations primarily cover the Canadian prairie provinces, but work from other locations is also...
An Ecological Framework to Support the use of Herbicide Alternatives in Boreal and Northern Temperate Forests of Ontario and Quebec: First Approximation
Resource
We present an ecological framework for classifying sites to support vegetation management decisions in the boreal and northern temperate forests of northeastern Ontario and northwestern Quebec. This...
An Ecosystem Carbon Database for Canadian Forests
Resource
The Forest Ecosystem Carbon Database presented in this report was compiled to meet the data needs of large-scale modelers and analysts working with the carbon budgets and dynamics of different forest...
An Examination of the Threats and Risks to Forests Arising from Invasive Alien Species
Resource
Invasions by alien organisms into new habitats pose one of the most significant global threats to ecosystem biodiversity and serious threats to economies around the globe. Canada, with its vast...
An Updated Forest Carbon Science Blueprint for Canada: Discussions on Priorities, Goals and Visions for the Coming Decade
Resource
A video outlining major updates to the Forest Carbon Science Blueprint for Canada. The original publication can be found here. The PDF of the presentation can be found here.
Analyzing and Predicting Fire Refugia in Western Canadian Forests
Resource
A video that shows novel research in analyzing and predicting fire refugia in western Canada. A PDF of the PowerPoint can be found here.
Anatomy of a Successful Pruning
Resource
Pruning is a very useful silvicultural treatment both for improving the final quality of a stand and for controlling certain pests. However, pruning causes wounds that the tree must close as quickly...
Annosus Root and Butt Rot Caused by Heterobasidion Irregular in Pines
Resource
Annosus root and butt rot appeared in Quebec relatively recently and its progression still seems to be fairly limited. However, the capacity of this disease to spread over long distances and the value...
Annual Aboveground Carbon Uptake Enhancements from Assisted Gene Flow in Boreal Black Spruce Forests Are Not Long-Lasting
Resource
Assisted gene flow between populations has been proposed as an adaptive forest management strategy that could contribute to the sequestration of carbon. Here we provide an assessment of the mitigation...
Application of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) to Oil Sands Environmental Monitoring
Resource
This report presents a comprehensive review of industrial applications of an emerging environmental monitoring technology called Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) and a WSN installed at Coal Valley Mine
Applications of Simulation-Based Burn Probability Modelling: A Review
Resource
Wildland fire scientists and land managers working in fire-prone areas require spatial estimates of wildfire potential. To fulfill this need, a simulation-modelling approach was developed whereby...
Applying and Testing a Novel Method to Estimate Animal Density from Motion-triggered Cameras
Resource
Estimating animal abundance and density are fundamental goals of many wildlife monitoring programs. Camera trapping has become an increasingly popular tool to achieve these monitoring goals due to...
Applying Remote Sensing for Large-landscape Problems: Inventorying and Tracking Habitat Recovery for a Broadly Distributed Species At Risk
Resource
Abstract Anthropogenic habitat alteration is leading to the reduction of global biodiversity. Consequently, there is an imminent need to understand the state and trend of habitat alteration across...
Aquatic Fate of Fish Tainting Compounds in the Athabasca River
Resource
Relationship between hydrocarbons present naturally, or introduced due to surface oil sands mining and upgrading activities, and their potential bioaccumulation and tainting of the commercial fishery
