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: A Tool for Optimizing Seed Transfer

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...
Paleolimnological Assessment of Past Hydro-ecological Variation at a Shallow Hardwater Lake in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region Before Potential Onset of Industrial Development
Resource
Effective environmental monitoring requires knowledge of inherent natural variation. In the absence of pre-development monitoring of aquatic ecosystems, paleolimnological approaches have been...
Partitioning Forest-Floor Respiration into Source Based Emissions in a Boreal Forested Bog: Response to Experimental Drought
Resource
Northern peatlands store globally significant amounts of soil carbon that could be released to the atmosphere under drier conditions induced by climate change. We measured forest floor respiration (R...
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...
Petawawa Research Forest: Applied Science at its Finest!
Resource
Since 1918, forest researchers have used the Petawawa Research Forest to establish long term experiments and have collected data using varied and innovative techniques to learn how trees grow within...
Petroleum Exploration Increases Methane Emissions from Northern Peatlands
Resource
Peatlands are globally significant sources of atmospheric methane (CH4). In the northern hemisphere, extensive geologic exploration activities have occurred to map petroleum deposits. In peatlands...
