Climate change-associated temporal increase of tree mortality and its consequences in central and western Canadian boreal forests
(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 ... -
Global environmental change effects on forest dynamics: lessons from permanent sample plot networks
(2019)Global environmental change caused by anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gasses is a major threat to forest ecosystems globally. Before we can begin to adequately mitigate these threats, we first must understand how ... -
Regeneration dynamics after fire and clear cutting in boreal mixedwoods
(2009)Emulation of natural disturbance processes and their effects is important to maintain the structure and composition of managed forests. In boreal mixed forests, clearcutting has been considered as management practice ... -
A spatial analysis of the relationship between forest demographic dynamics and diversity under climate change
(2023)Forest dynamics arise from three demographic processes simultaneously, namely recruitment, mortality and growth, all of which are expected to accelerate for the boreal forest under future climate change. Tree species ... -
Trends in growth and soil nutrients following fire and logging
(2016)Understanding the impact of natural and anthropogenic disturbance on soil fertility and tree growth is critical to the sustainability of forest management, yet there remains much uncertainty regarding how both harvesting ...
