Genetic variation and climatic impacts on survival and growth of white spruce in Alberta, Canada
Download2007-01-01
Rweyongeza, Deogratias M., Yang, Rong-Cai, Dhir, N. K., Barnhardt, L. K., Hansen, C.
Because climate has the greatest effect in determining the genetic structure of forest tree species, climatic variables with large effects on growth and survival need to be identified. This would enable proper matching of tree populations to planting sites in the present and future climates. We...

Guiding Douglas-fir seed selection in Europe under changing climates: bioclimatic envelope model predictions versus growth observed in provenance trials
DownloadFall 2013
Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirbel) Franco) is one of the most ecologically and economically important tree species in both its native range in North America and in its introduced range in Europe. The aim of this research is to inform the European Douglas-fir reforestation strategy under...

Fall 2019
Within the Boreal Plains of north-central Alberta, catchments situated within low permeability glacial terrain are composed of a mosaic of landscape units including ponds, peatlands, and upland aspen forest ecosystems within a sub-humid climatic zone where water deficit conditions are frequent. ...

Identifying historical climate-growth limitations of white spruce (Picea glauca) populations across North America
DownloadSpring 2021
Climate change may cause reduced forest productivity and higher tree mortality due to water deficits that result from increased evapotranspiration. Such limitations may occur in some areas of the North American boreal forest, where precipitation is low and warming trends are high. This thesis...
