Nine Years of in Situ Soil Warming and Topography Impact the Temperature Sensitivity and Basal Respiration Rate of the Forest Floor in a Canadian Boreal Forest
Resource
The forest floor of boreal forest stores large amounts of organic C that may react to a warming climate and increased N deposition. It is therefore crucial to assess the impact of these factors on the...
Novel Aerial Photography as an Aid to Sampling Secondary Structure in Pine Stands
Resource
This project describes a new method for sampling secondary structure in beetle-attacked pine stands and reports on a test of its accuracy. The method consists of interpreting aerial photos taken when...

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
Resource
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...
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...
Peatlands Promote Fire Refugia In Boreal Forests Of Northern Alberta, Canada
Resource
Abstract In the boreal forests of North America, large wildfires often leave residual patches of unburned vegetation, termed fire refugia, which can affect post-fire ecosystem processes. Although...
Peatlands Reduce Fire Severity and Promote Fire Refugia in Boreal Forests
News

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...
Physiology and Mechanisms of Airborne Pollutant Injury to Vegetation, 1979-80
Resource
Appreciable changes in biochemical functions in an epiphytic lichen, Evernia mesomorpha, were observed in response to controlled SO2 exposures even at a very low SO2 concentration (0.1 ppm)
