Spatial and temporal stand dynamics of mature lodgepole pine forests of the Canadian Rocky Mountains
DownloadFall 2015
In forest ecosystems, structure and species composition change over time as a function of ageing and minor disturbances and it is important to understand these changes for predicting forest productivity and habitat suitability for other plant and animal biota. Disturbances play a major role in...

Transpiration Response of Residual Lodgepole Pine After Partial-cut and Strip-shelterwood Harvesting in Alberta's Southern Rocky Mountains
DownloadFall 2019
Forest harvesting reduces forest canopy cover which can reduce evapotranspiration and affect the hydrologic regime of watersheds. Prior research has shown while transpiration is reduced by the removal of trees, it can also affect soil moisture and meteorological variables (e.g....

Tree population responses to extreme climate events to guide reforestation under climate change
DownloadSpring 2018
As climates warm and extreme climatic events occur with more frequency and severity, maintaining forest health and productivity may involve planting seed sources from warmer, drier areas. To guide such reforestation strategies, this work analyzes the risks of both climate change and assisted...
