Differences in extrinsic tree quality and value of fibre production following alternative vegetation management treatments in Northwestern Ontario
(2011)We examined differences in stem quality, and volume and value of fibre produced by planted white spruce 16 years after vegetation management treatments in northwestern Ontario. Forest Vegetation Simulator (FVSOntario) was ... -
Ecologically-based taper equations for major tree species in Manitoba
(2004)Kozak's variable exponent taper equation was fitted for balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera L.), trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.), white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss), black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) ... -
Effects of soil temperature on a coupled photosynthesis-stomatal conductance model for four boreal tree species
(2000)In order to examine the effects of soil temperature on a coupled photosynthesis-stomatal conductance model, seedlings of trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx), jack pine (Pinsu banksiana Lamb. ), black spruce (Picea ... -
An Examination of bark beetles and their associated blue stain fungi on boreal jack pine (Pinus banksiana) and white spruce (Picea glauca) in the Thunder Bay Region
(2009)Blue stain, caused by members of the Ophiostomatales, is of concern to the forest industry because it can quickly devalue timber by penetrating deep into the sapwood and creating dark blue to black staining. These fungi ... -
Genecology, patterns of adaptive variation and a comparison of focal point seed zone development methodologies for white spruce (Picea glauca)
(2005)Ecologically based management of white spruce (Picea glauca [Moench] Voss.) requires an understanding of its patterns of adaptive variation. Six common garden trials and a greenhouse trial established in 2002 and 2003 ... -
Investigating productivity and foliar nutrient status in second growth white spruce (Picea glauca) and trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides)
(2012-11-10)This thesis synthesizes two related papers investigating competitive interactions of second growth white spruce (Picea glauca [Moench] Voss) and trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) at the Fallingsnow Ecosystem ... -
Relating genecological variation in white spruce to ecological land classification in Central Canada
(2009)Genetic diversity can be seen as a fundamental element in forest sustainability. Information about the genetics of trees can be obtained from provenance studies. Previous research has demonstrated that white spruce exhibits ...
