Lumber recovery, a leaf area model, and water use in response to commercial thinning, for plantation grown black spruce (Picea mariana [Mills] B.S.P.) / by Steven M. Young.
(2008)
Three black spruce (Picea mariana [Mills] B.S.P.) plantations (Airstrip, Boom Lake and Tyrol Lake), in northwestern Ontario, with varied stand densities (2806 stems ha[superscript -1], 2285 stems ha[superscript -1], and ...
Development of optimal breeding zones for white spruce in Ontario under current, past, and anticipated future climate change / by Ashley Marie Thomson.
(2008)
Tree breeding zones are delimited areas where trees are selected and bred, and their progeny are planted. Within these zones, the level of adaptation between seedlings and planting sites is controlled to ensure adequate ...
Influence of regeneration method on juvenile jack pine clear wood static bending properties and specific gravity / by Karen L. Jackson.
(2008)
The effects of regeneration method on three wood properties of jack pine, along different vertical positions, grown in northwestern Ontario were evaluated. A multi-staged nested sampling design was used to randomly select ...
Object-oriented and pixel-based image classification using Landsat multispectral and Hyperion hyperspectral imagery in boreal conditions
(2008)
Current environmental trends dictate a need for new methods, initiatives, and technologies that provide reliable, up-to-date forest information. Canada, which is home to ten percent of the Earth's forests, has made national ...
Comparison of growth intercept and site index models of black spruce plantations and natural stands in Northern Ontario
(2008)
Black spruce (Picea mariana Mill. B.S.P.) is one of the most important tree
species in Canada, both ecologically and commercially. The forest industry has steadily
increased efforts to artificially regenerate areas that ...
Environmental drivers of succession in jack pine-dominated stands of boreal Ontario
(2008)
Spanning boreal Ontario, photo chronosequencing was used to observe change
through time in 178 stands comprised at least in part by jack pine (Pinus bansiana
Lamb.). Linked to growth and yield monitoring plot networks ...
Post-fire natural regeneration of young stands on clearcut, partial-cut and uncut sites of boreal mixedwoods : Fire NIP 10 burned stands regeneration analysis
(2008)
Boreal mixedwoods are an important element and the most productive forest type
in the Canadian boreal forests. This research focused on the regeneration of stands burned
by an intense wild fire in Black Sturgeon Boreal ...
Forest structure and small-mammal responses to variable-retention timber harvest in the Cape Breton highlands of Nova Scotia
(2008)
American marten ( Martes americana Turton) are endangered in Nova Scotia and the population on Cape Breton Island is critically low. A marten recovery strategy is in place but there are large gaps in information regarding ...
Effects of elevated carbon dioxide concentration and light on biomass morphology and physiology of black spruce and white spruce seedlings
(2008)
Carbon dioxide concentration and light interactions influence competition among boreal tree species, though little is known about the exact effects. The interactive effects of [CO 2 ] and light on growth, biomass production, ...
