Assisted migration to address climate change: recommendations for aspen reforestation in western Canada
Download2011
Mbogga, M. S., Chen, P., Gray, L. K., Gylander, T., Hamann, A.
Abstract: Human-aided movement of species populations in large-scale reforestation programs could be a potent and cost-effective climate change adaptation strategy. Such large-scale management interventions, however, tend to entail the risks of unintended consequences, and we propose that three...

Dothistroma needle blight, caused by the fungus Dothistroma septosporum, is a major past of pine plantations in the Southern Hemisphere, where both the host and the pathogen have been introduced. In northern temperate forests where the pest and host trees are native, damage levels have...

Potential effects of climate change on tree species and ecosystem distribution in British Columbia
Download2006
A new ecosystem-based climate envelope modeling approach was applied to assess potential climate change impacts on forest communities and tree species. Four orthogonal canonical discriminant functions were used to describe the realized climate space for British Columbia's ecosystems and to model...

Strategies for reforestation under uncertain future climates: guidelines for Alberta, Canada
Download2011
Abstract: Background: Commercial forestry programs normally use locally collected seed for reforestation under the assumption that tree populations are optimally adapted to local environments. However, in western Canada this assumption is no longer valid because of climate trends that have...
