Interim report on symptomology and threshold levels of air pollutant injury to vegetation, 1975 to 1978
Download1979
Malhotra, S. S., Addison, P. A.
Six boreal forest plant species were fumigated in a newly developed environmental growth chamber with SO2 control capability,for up to 40 days at 0.34 ppm SO2. All species showed a gradual decline in CO2 gas exchange which was related to symptom development characteristic of SO2 toxicity. Paper...

Interim report on symptomology and threshold levels of air pollutant injury to vegetation, 1978-79
Download1979
Malhotra, S. S., Addison, P. A.
The dominant woody boreal forest plant species were fumigated with 0.34 ppm SO2 under controlled conditions in the laboratory in order to rank their physiological and visual sensitivities to the air pollutant. Deciduous trees and shrubs were much more sensitive than conifers, presumably because...

A Large Fire Database (LFDB), which includes information on fire location, start date, final size, cause, and suppression action, has been developed for all fires larger than 200 ha in area for Canada for the 1959-1997 period. The LFDB represents only 3.1% of the total number of Canadian fires...

Managing the cumulative impacts of land uses in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin: A modeling approach.
Download2003
Wasel, S., Schneider, R., Boutin, S., Stelfox, J.
This case study from northeastern Alberta, Canada, demonstrates a fundamentally different approach to forest management in which stakeholders balance conservation and economic objectives by weighing current management options from the point of view of their long-term effects on the forest....

Moth Diversity in a Fragmented Habitat: Importance of Functional Groups and Landscape Scale in the Boreal Forest
Download2006
Abstract: One of the leading concerns for both conservation biology and forestry has been bow forest fragmentation affects biodiversity, and how forestry practices can be altered to mitigate diversity losses. However, the effects of habitat fragmentation on ecological functional groups within...

Movement Patterns of Adult Male Ovenbirds during the Post-Fledging Period in Fragmented and Forested Boreal Landscapes
Download2001
Bayne, Erin M., Hobson, Keith A.
Movement of forest songbirds among isolated forest patches following breeding represents an important but poorly understood component of landscape ecology and metapopulation theory. Using radio-telemetry, we followed 44 male Ovenbirds (Seiurus aurocapillus) during the post-fledging period to...

Natural Recovery of Upland Boreal Forest Vegetation on a Hummocky Peat-Mineral Mix Substrate in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region, Alberta
DownloadSpring 2010
This research investigated the natural recovery of upland boreal forest vegetation on a peat-mineral mix substrate in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region, Alberta. Three sites, aged 26 to 34 years, were assessed to determine effects of substrate (pH, electrical conductivity, texture), topography,...
