Genetic variation of hydraulic and wood anatomical traits in hybrid poplar and trembling aspen
Download2011
Hacke, U.G., Schreiber, S.G., Hamann, A., Thomas, B.R.
•Intensive forestry systems and breeding programs often include either native aspen or hybrid poplar clones, and performance and trait evaluations are mostly made within these two groups. Here, we assessed how traits with potential adaptive value varied within and across these two plant groups....

Abstract: Despite its growing environmental significance, there are no detailed historical records of atmospheric As deposition for the Northern Hemisphere. Having overcome the severe analytical challenges in measuring As in polar ice, and using an Arctic ice core representing similar to 16 ka of...

Habitat and forage selection of moose in the aspen-dominated boreal forest, central Alberta
Download1992
Forage and habitat selection of tame moose (Alces alces) in a 65 ha enclosure were studied for an annual cycle. Although the staple winter foods were woody twigs, moose consumed large amounts of leaf litter and bark under some environmental conditions. Foliage dominated the diet following leaf...
