Impacts of storage, season, duration and steaming on physical properties and extractive content of aspen chips
(1995)
An investigation was made into the rates of moisture content, extractives and
basic wood density losses that occur when trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) wood
chips are stored during different seasons ...
Effects of copper, zinc and cadmium on the pigments and photosynthesis of black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P) seedlings
(1995)
The purpose of this study was to quantify the effects of heavy metals on pigments
and photosynthesis in four and a half month old black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.)

Interference of aquatic plants associated with wild rice (Zizania palustril L.)
(1995)
The objective of this thesis was to determine the interference
potential of aquatic plants to wild rice (Zizania palustris L. )

describe the influence of ...
Implications of alternative herbicide-use policies for forest management in Ontario
(1995)
Public sentiment is against herbicide use on public forests in Ontario. Provincial
