Habitat Alteration or Climate: What Drives the Densities of an Invading Ungulate?
Resource
Anthropogenic habitat alteration and climate change are two well-known contributors to biodiversity loss through changes to species distribution and abundance; yet, disentangling the effects of these...
Habitat Loss Accelerates for the Endangered Woodland Caribou in Western Canada
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...
Habitat Loss Accelerates for the Endangered Woodland Caribou in Western Canada
Resource
Habitat loss is often the ultimate cause of species endangerment and is also a leading factor inhibiting species recovery. For this reason, species-at-risk legislation, policies and plans typically...
Habitat Selection at Different Scales for a Declining Aerial Insectivorous Bird as Determined by Autonomous Recording Technology
Resource
Conservation management is impeded by the lack of baseline data for many non-passerine, cryptic, or nocturnal species that are inadequately sampled by traditional monitoring programs. The recent rise...
Hardwood Planting on Abandoned Farmland in Southern Ontario: Revised Guide
Resource
"A Guide to Hardwood Planting on Abandoned Farmland in Southern Ontario" was first published in 1979. In the past 10 years, much new knowledge has been gained about species requirements and new...
Harmonizing Multi-Temporal Airborne Laser Scanning Point Clouds to Derive Periodic Annual Height Increments in Temperate Mixedwood Forests
Resource
When combining multi-temporal airborne laser scanning (ALS) data sets, forest height growth assessments can be compromised due to variations in ALS acquisitions. Herein, we demonstrate the importance...
Health of North American Forests
Resource
Forests are environmentally and economically important in North America, and forest health is monitored to enable policy decisions to be made on factors affecting forest health. Forests are subject to...
Hemlock Woolly Adelgid
Resource
The hemlock woolly adelgid ( Adelges tsugae) is an introduced pest of hemlock trees in eastern Canada and the eastern United States. Hemlock woolly adelgid is also present in British Columbia but is a...
High-Resolution Interpolation of Climate Scenarios for Canada Derived from General Circulation Model Simulations
Resource
Projections of future climate were selected for four well-established general circulation models (GCMs) forced by each of three greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions scenarios recommended by the...
How Climate Change Might Affect Tree Regeneration Following Fire at Northern Latitudes: A Review
Resource
Climate change is projected to increase fire severity and frequency in the boreal forest, but it could also directly affect post-fire recruitment processes by impacting seed production, germination...
How Does Canada Report on Forest GHG Emissions?
Resource
Each year, the Canadian Forest Service (CFS) provides estimates of the amount of carbon in our managed forests and the changes in these amounts over time. Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC)...
HydroGeoSim: A Water Purification Geosimulation Modelling Platform
Resource
The model documentation summarizes the data, variables and assumptions required to capture how water purification services are provided across landscapes in Alberta
Impact of Air Pollutant Mixtures on Forest Vegetation and Soils
Resource
No impact on jack pine physiology was found when concentrations of the dominant pollutants from Oil Sands operations equivalent to 104 years of soluble disposition were added to intact soil cores
Impacts of a Stump Uprooting Operation on Properties of a Calcareous Loamy Soil and on Planted Seedling Performance
Resource
Six hundred Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) and 600 lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta var. latifolia) seedlings were planted on seven plots in a cutover north of Golden, British Columbia, to...
Impacts of Blading and Burning Site Preparation on Soil Properties and Site Productivity in the Sub-Boreal Spruce Zone of Central British Columbia
Resource
We investigated soil factors and tree growth on sites that were clearcut during the 1970s and early 1980s and were subsequently site prepared with either blade scarification (blading) or prescribed...
Impacts of Climate Change on Photosynthesis and Carbon Sequestration / Impactes des changements climatiques sur la photosythèse et le piégeage du carbone
Resource
Global warming may cause photosynthesis to start earlier. As the climate warms, spring arrives earlier and fall ends later. This change in temperature affects how trees grow. Gretta Goodine of the...
Impacts of Cross-Contour Skidroads on Properties of a Gravelly Sandy Loam Soil and on Planted Seedling Performance
Resource
Soil conditions, growth of 1200 planted seedlings each of lodgepole pine ( Pinus contorta var. latifolia) and Douglas-fir ( Pseudotsuga menziesii), and development of other vegetation were studied to...
