Short- and Long-term Wildfire Threat When Adapting Infrastructure for Wildlife Conservation in the Boreal Forest
Resource
Infrastructure built in fire-prone wildland areas often has a high potential of being impacted by wildfire. Managers designing infrastructure in these areas, therefore, require assessments of wildfire...
Short Rotation Woody Crop
Resource
Providing the knowledge needed to mitigate climate change effects and improve forest management, this long-term research by the CWFC could expand the circular bio-economy through high-yield crops that...
Short-Interval Wildfire and Drought Overwhelm Boreal Forest Resilience
Resource
The size and frequency of large wildfires in western North America have increased in recent years, a trend climate change is likely to exacerbate. Due to fuel limitations, recently burned forests...
Short-term Effects of Wildfire in Boreal Peatlands: Does Fire Mitigate the Linear Footprint of Oil and Gas Exploration?
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...
Silvicultural Treatments for Black Spruce Establishment in Boreal Ontario: Effects of Weed Control, Stock Type, and Planting Season
Resource
Four field experiments were carried out to assess the performance of black spruce ( Picea mariana [Mill.] B.S.P.) outplants in relation to: weed control (i.e., with vs. without), stock type (i.e...
Silviculture Knowledge for Reclamation of Oil and Gas Disturbances
Resource
This guidebook explains mounding – a silviculture technique for preparing a site for reclamation. The Natural Resources Canada Canadian Forest Service developed this guidebook to help with the...
Silviculture Treatments Hasten Seedling Growth on Seismic Disturbances in Boreal Treed Fens
Resource
Seismic lines in western Canada's boreal region are linear disturbances that affect the habitat of threatened woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou). To hasten the return of forest cover and...
Site de développement technique de cultures ligneuses à courte rotation d’Ellerslie, à Edmonton (Alberta)
Resource
The Ellerslie Short Rotation Woody Crops (SRWC) Technical Development Site provided a unique opportunity to evaluate (from establishment to end-user) growth and yield, physical and chemical...
Site Preparation for Restoring Forest Cover on Oil and Gas Sites
Resource
Site preparation, forest regeneration, and vegetation management are all important aspects of silviculture and reclamation. Multiple techniques and practices can optimize the success of reclamation...
Site Restoration. Step 1: Looking Back to the Past
Resource
Because natural resources development causes landscape disturbance, post-development site restoration requires an in-depth knowledge of previous conditions. What did the landscape look like before...
Size Requirements of Intact Forest Landscapes for Effective Biodiversity Conservation under Regional Fire Regimes and Climate Change
Resource
Conserving large intact forest landscapes (IFLs) is one forest management strategy to mitigate industrial impacts on the environment. Measuring the IFL inventory at national scales has also been...
Sizing Canada’s National Seed Supply Chain: Preliminary Assessment focused on Trees and Shrubs
Resource
In 2021-2022, the National Tree Seed Centre led a series of surveys to establish an accurate idea of genetically appropriate seed supply for forest landscape restoration (FLR) needs across Canada by...
Snow-caching: On-Site Interim Storage of Planting Stock
Resource
This technical note summarizes the feasibility of on-site interim storage of bare root black spruce tree seedlings, details snow-cache construction, and notes the costs and savings associated with the...
Soil Decompaction: Silviculture Knowledge for Reclamation of Oil and Gas Disturbances
Resource
This guidebook explains soil decompaction in great deal. It is a silviculture practice that can be used when preparing a site for reclamation. Natural Resources Canada, Canadian Forest Service (NRCan...
Soil Displacement and Compaction Effects on Conifer Seedlings in Southeast British Columbia: Study Establishment
Resource
Soil disturbance from forest harvesting has been shown to compromise site productivity. We established satellite trials in five of the Long-Term Soil Productivity (LTSP) sites in southeast British...
Soil Properties and Root Development in Forest Trees: A Review
Resource
The literature is reviewed with the aim of consolidating silviculturally important information about interactions between root system development and soil properties; a complementary objective is to...
