COARSE WOODY DEBRIS EFFECTS ON BIOGEOCHEMISTRY IN TWO RECONSTRUCTED SOILS IN THE ATHABASCA OIL SANDS REGION IN ALBERTA, CANADA
DownloadFall 2015
Forest floor mineral soil mix (FMM) and peat mineral soil mix (PMM) are cover soils commonly used for land reclamation post open pit oil sands mining in northern Alberta, Canada. While in such land reclamation practices the organic matter comes from the peat material salvaged before land...

Influence of variable retention and deadwood characteristics on saproxylic beetles in boreal white spruce stands
DownloadSpring 2016
Retention forestry aims to maintain a significant level of continuity in forest structure, composition and complexity so as to support conservation and recovery of biodiversity and ecological function on managed landscapes; however, the amount and distribution of retention that best meets...

Net ecosystem productivity of temperate and boreal forests after clearcutting - a Fluxnet-Canada measurement and modelling synthesis
Download2010
Barr, A. G., Trofymow, J. A., McCaughey, J. H., Black, T. A., Margolis, H. A., Grant, R. F.
Abstract: Clearcutting strongly affects subsequent forest net ecosystem productivity (NEP). Hypotheses for ecological controls on NEP in the ecosystem model ecosys were tested with CO(2) fluxes measured by eddy covariance (EC) in three post-clearcut conifer chronosequences in different ecological...

Saproxylic insect assemblages inhabiting dead wood in Canadian forests are highly diverse and variable but quite poorly understood. Adequate assessment of these assemblages poses significant challenges with respect to sampling, taxonomy, and analysis. Their assessment is nonetheless critical to...
