Density-Dependent Effects and the Regulation of Crucian Carp Populations in Single-Species Ponds
Download1994
Tonn, W. M., Holopainen, I. J., Paszkowski, C. A.
Crucian carp (Carassius carassius) is often the only fish species present in small ponds of northern Europe. Such populations are typically at high densities and consist primarily of small, relatively slender, and short-lived fish; populations in multispecies assemblages in lakes display opposite...

Fall 2018
Red alder (Alnus rubra [Bong.]), is the most common hardwood species along the Pacific Northwest coast and is widely distributed as a component of mixed stands with conifers on highly productive sites. It is also a strong competitor in young conifer stands and rapidly overtops associated juvenile...

Enhancing ICT Adoption and Use through Change Leadership: Technology Stewardship Training for Caribbean Agricultural Communities of Practice
Download2018-11-01
Gow, Gordon A., Chowdhury, Ataharul, Ganpat, Wayne, Ramjattan, Jeet
Beginning in 2012, the University of Alberta in partnership with others has been undertaking participatory action research in Sri Lanka and, since 2017, in the Caribbean to foster inclusive innovation through a Joint Education and Training Initiative (JETI). The JETI is developing and testing a...

Evaluating trembling aspen seedling stock characteristics in response to outplanting and competition
DownloadFall 2017
Trembling aspen is commonly used in the afforestation of boreal forest reclamation sites; however, the presence of vegetation competition can reduce growth and establishment success. This research examines how initial morphological characteristics influence the above and belowground growth of...

Exploring above- and belowground behavioural responses to nutrients and neighbours in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
DownloadSpring 2022
Taking in environmental information and responding in ways that maximize their ability to thrive and reproduce, plants exhibit behaviour through constant changes in biomass development and spatial distribution. Studies aiming to map this behaviour often use model plants like sunflowers and...

Factors affecting larval growth and development of the boreal chorus frog Pseudacris maculata
DownloadFall 2010
The boreal chorus frog (Pseudacris maculata) is a widespread species but we know little of its ecology. I examined the nature and existence of competitive mechanisms operating between larvae of the boreal chorus frog and wood frog (Lithobates sylvaticus) from field, mesocosm and laboratory venues...

Factors influencing size inequality in peatland black spruce and tamarack: Evidence from post-drainage release growth
Download1999
1 We used tree ring analysis to determine stem radius and thus examine size variation over time in two even-aged (approximately 40-year-old) mixed populations of black spruce and tamarack established on peatlands in a boreal forest. We also followed the response of one of these populations to...

Spring 2014
Hybrid poplar plantations have the potential to produce large amounts of biomass for the forest industry, but the young trees are sensitive to competition. This research attempted to quantify the influence of factors regulating competition in hybrid poplar plantations under four years old. The...
