Pilot study to assess the use of early successional stands (i.e. those ranging in age from 4 to 17 years) by wildlife (songbirds, small mammals, and ungulates), using a wildlife monitoring protocol
NRCan pilot science projects have proven that Earth Observation can provide relevant and valuable information to inform and enhance monitoring and support regulatory frameworks
The Canadian National Vegetation Classification (CNVC) is an ecological classification of natural and semi-natural Canadian vegetation. The classification is a hierarchical taxonomy, describing...

There was only very limited evidence of biological responses to increased pollutant content in spite of significantly higher pollutant levels in tissues close to existing industrial developments.
The Eastern boreal forests of Quebec, Canada, have been extensively harvested over the past decades. Second growth stands originating from sites harvested between 1920 and 1950 will soon reach the...
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...
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...
Canada’s boreal forest represents an important contributor of the world’s wood supply industry. However, maintaining or increasing productivity of the boreal forest may be challenging in areas...
Low-impact seismic (LIS) techniques were developed to reduce the environmental footprint of oil exploration. Though relatively narrow (~2–3 m) and constructed with light-weight equipment, these lines...
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)...
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...
Boreal forest development is influenced by both natural and anthropogenic disturbances that alter stand structure and nutrient cycling over decadal timescales. The effects of disturbance on boreal...
Seven treatment units in three different clearcut blocks in the Golden Forest District were studied to assess overall soil disturbance levels resulting from ground-based harvesting using two methods...
Microbial communities associated with leaf litter in streams provide key ecosystem services through the cycling of energy and nutrients that can be influenced by environmental factors. We examined the...
