Detailed GIS studies across spatially complex rangeland landscapes, including the Aspen Parkland of western Canada, require accurate digital elevation models (DEM). Following the interpolation of last return lidar (light detection and ranging) data into a DEM, a series of 256 reference plots,...

Understory responses to mechanical restoration and drought within Montane forests of British Columbia
Download2005
Page, Hillary N., Newman, Reg F., Bork, Edward W.
Pre- and post-thinning relationships between forest overstorey and understorey characteristics at sites in both the Interior Douglas-fir (IDF) and Ponderosa Pine (PP) biogeoclimatic zones in the East Kootenay region of southeast British Columbia were investigated to quantify understorey responses...

Direct and indirect drivers of plant diversity responses to climate and clipping across northern temperate grassland
Download2014-01-01
Cahill, James F., Bork, Edward W., White, Shannon R.
It is well known that climate can influence plant community assembly via a multitude of indirect and direct pathways. However, interpretations of plant diversity responses to simulated climate change experiments, and subsequent predictions of plant communities under future climate scenarios,...

Effects of flood seasonality and frequency on northern pintail and other breeding ducks in managed prairie wetlands
Download2011
Thompson, Jonathan E., Bork, Edward W., Asamoah, Stephen A.
Anthropogenic flooding to create wetlands is a management option intended to compensate for historical loss of natural wetlands in the Dry Mixedgrass Prairie of western Canada. It may help moderate or reverse declines in density of breeding Northern Pintails (Anas acuta L.) and other waterfowl....

Seasonal dynamics and defoliation impact on herbage yield in aspen boreal habitats of Alberta
Download2003
Donkor, Noble T., Okello, Moses M., Hudson, Robert J., Bork, Edward W.
Within the aspen boreal ecosystems, little information exists on the seasonal dynamics of available herbage and the effects of varying defoliation regimes on accumulated herbage growth and associated opportunities for animal production. We examined seasonal changes in herbage phytomass in...

Bork, Edward W., Willms, Walter D., Adams, Barry W.
A three year monitoring program evaluated the effects of a December 1997 wildfire in southwest Alberta, on Foothills Rough Fescue grassland species composition, ground cover, herbage production, and forage quality. Changes in species abundance included a reduction in grass cover (p<0.10) after...
