    Influence of riparian harvesting on boreal understory vegetation 

    MacDonald, Rebecca Louise (2014-01-22)
    In the boreal forest, understory vegetation accounts for the majority of floristic diversity and affects overstory succession and productivity, nutrient cycling, and wildlife habitat. In riparian forests, understory ...

    Plant abundance, diversity, and composition following reclamation in Alberta's oil sands 

    Sobey, Timothy Michael (2014-12-18)
    The Alberta oil sands have caused an economic boom in the Canadian economy in recent years. Identifying the best strategy for vegetation recovery after oil sands extraction is critical to restoring the biodiversity and ...

    Foliar nutrient resorption and litterfall production with stand age, overstory composition, and disturbance origin in boreal forests 

    Brant, Amber Nadine (2015-01-13)
    Nutrient resorption (NuR) prior to developmental senescence allows for nutrient conservation in plants, driven primarily by genetics, development stage, climate and soil fertility, and litterfall is the vector for the ...

    Modelling the radial and longitudinal variation in wood density and its sensitivity to climate in black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P.) 

    Xiang, Wei (2014-01-22)
    Wood density variation affects structural timber performance and is correlated with different sources (genetic diversity, stand dynamics and climatic effects) which, to date, have not been comprehensively quantified in ...

    Habitat use by woodland caribou in a managed boreal forest landscape 

    Honsberger, Terrence J. C. (2012-11-10)
    Woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) populations throughout much of the boreal forest have decreased as a result of changes to forest composition, including an increase in moose (Alces alces) and wolf (Canis lupus) ...

    Past and future impacts of climate change on boreal forest timber supply 

    Brecka, Aaron (2018)
    The boreal forest is home to a thriving forest industry which requires stable, long term timber to remain viable. Anthropogenic climate change, caused by the release of greenhouse gasses, is occurring rapidly in northern ...

    Climate change-associated temporal increase of tree mortality and its consequences in central and western Canadian boreal forests 

    Luo, Yong (2014-01-22)
    Tree mortality influences forest structure, composition and ecosystem functions. To assess how recent climate changes affected tree mortality, observational studies conducted in old-growth forests have shown that tree ...

    Effects of nutrient supply, soil temperature and root interactions on morphology, growth, biomass and physiological responses of black spruce and white spruce seedlings to CO2 elevation 

    Marfo, Jacob (2012-11-10)
    Changes in atmospheric CO2 concentration ([CO2]) and temperature may influence nutrient resources and how boreal species respond to their environment. The effects of increased [CO2] on plants are generally positive but can ...

    Patterns and mechanisms of epiphytic macrolichen and abundance, diversity and composition in boreal forest 

    Bartels, Samuel Fiifi (2014-12-11)
    Epiphytes are important components of the forest ecosystem, but the mechanisms that control epiphyte diversity are not clear. Epiphytes are sensitive to disturbance, but their responses to stand-replacing fire are poorly ...

    Limitations of forest overstory composition and age as proxies for habitat in a harvested boreal forest 

    Boan, Julee Jaye (2014-12-11)
    Despite the importance of wildlife habitat protection in meeting land use management objectives, criteria for habitat identification are surprisingly amorphous. For example, while much current habitat modeling has tended ...
