Using controlled water treatment on understory plant species to determine the effects of climate change on the boreal forest
(2018)
Climate change poses a big threat to boreal forest managers. We have set out to test how different precipitation levels will affect a number of boreal understory species across the three forest types commonly found in the ...
The Root dynamics of mixed and single species stands in the boreal forest of central and eastern Canada
(2010)
I examined trends of fine root biomass and necromass in different mixed- and single-species stands within the central and eastern regions of the North American boreal forest to determine how annual fine root production, ...
Assessment of black spruce portfolio trial survival and growth and implications for reforestation under climate change
(2018)
The purpose of this study is to assess the performance of black spruce seedlings
at a genetic trial designed to select seed sources adapted to several climate change
scenarios. Height variability among trees is attributed ...
Comparing the spatial pattern of fire and harvest disturbance in boreal Ontario watersheds
(2016)
Fire and harvest are both major sources of disturbance in Ontario’s boreal forest.
They are largely responsible for successional patterns in forest vegetation, and influence
regimes of hydrologic change in boreal streams, ...
