Effects of prescribed burning on mycorrhizal fungi in a pinus banksiana stand
(1997)
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of fire on mycorrhizal fungi
in a Pinus banksiana stand. It was hypothesized that an optimal fire intensity leads to
an increase in ectomycorrhizal colonization of ...
Potential impacts of clearcut logging on lake trout (salvelinus namaycush) reproduction in northwestern Ontario lakes
(1997)
Lake trout reproductive habitat was characterized in three small lakes, 250 km northwest
of Thunder Bay, Ontario, by measuring the physical characteristics of preferred spawning
habitat including 1) depth, 2) substrate ...
Effects of alternative vegetation management treatments on epigeal insects, coleoptera, carabidae and non-insectan arthropods
(1997)
The primary objective of this study was to examine the effects of alternative vegetation management on epigeal insects, Coleoptera, Carabidae, and non-insectan arthropods. This study, which is a component of the Fallingsnow ...
Forest soil characteristics and variability under teak (Tectona grandis Linn.F) plantations and natural forests in Ashanti Region, Ghana
(1998)
The variability of forest soil properties and the number of samples required to achieve
desired levels of precision for estimation of property means have received little attention in
the tropics. Highly variable forest ...
Exploring the human dimension of Thunder Bay moose hunters with focus on choice behaviour and environmental preferences
(1999)
This study examined hunters' attitudes, preferences, and support for a variety of
hunting and resource management issues. The survey also included the first application
of a discrete choice experiment (DCE) to hunters ...
Influence of landscape-scale forest structure on the presence of pileated woodpeckers (dryocopus pileatus) in Central Ontario forests
(1999)
The goal of my research was to investigate the influence of landscape-scale forest
structure on the presence of pileated woodpeckers (Dryocopus pileatus) in central
Ontario forests. Study sites were located in Algonquin ...
Logging residue from the tropical high forests in the western region of Ghana
(2000)
In the face of increasing demand for industrial wood and the serious reduction of the
forest resource base in Ghana, logging is reported to be wasteful. However, the level of
wastage or residue generation has not been ...
Evaluation of natural regeneration potential of a degraded forest in Ghana
(1999)
Vast areas of forests have been degraded in Ghana. The degraded areas are generally
invaded by Chromolaena odorata, a strong competing species for trees. Planting is the
major primary means that is currently used to ...
Comparative analysis of alternative models of moose habitat carrying capacity
(1999)
The focus of the project was to compare the performance of several alternative
models in predicting the potential impacts of timber harvesting on a moose
population northwest of Edmonton, Alberta, in terms of moose ...
Investigation of wood fibre recovery and related economics of four harvesting systems common to Northwestern Ontario
(1999)
Wood fibre recovery levels of harvesting systems have increased steadily since
the advent of mechanized logging in northwestern Ontario. Although wood utilization
levels are commonly better than the legal specifications ...
