Carbon stock estimates for red spruce (Picea rubens) forest in central Nova Scotia
(2005)Carbon storage was measured in natural red spruce dominated stands in the Eastern Eco-region of central Nova Scotia (NS). Twenty-four plots over a 140-year chronosequence were established. Within each plot, major carbon ... -
The distribution and role of downed woody debris in nutrient retention and cycling during early stand establishment
(2013-02-12)Coarse woody debris (CWD) in boreal ecosystems has been hypothesized to play an important nutritional role following stand-replacing disturbances such as fire or harvest. Sites with shallow soil over bedrock or those with ... -
Patterns and mechanisms of tree species diversity effects on fine root processes associated with stand development in boreal forests
(2018)Over the last two decades, one major advance in ecology has been the demonstration that biodiversity has positive effects on a broad range of ecosystem functions. However, diversity-ecosystem functioning studies for ...
