In order to evaluate the impacts of alternative stand-level management scenarios on long-
term site productivity, forest resource managers need ecologically based forest growth …

Approximately 42% of Canada is covered by forests, which in turn can be subdivided into
nine distinct forest ecozones. Many forested ecozones are located in northern Canada …

Sixty-three lakes were sampled semi-annually for acid precipitation–related variables in
Canada's Atlantic Provinces, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland from 1983 to 1997. A further …

Fine root turnover is a critical component of below‐ground forest ecology, which regulates
nutrient dynamics, forest net primary productivity, carbon input to soils, and soil respiration …

A dynamic modelling approach useful for assessing atmospheric ion deposition effects on
stand level biomass production and nutrient cycling in upland forests is presented. The …

Numerical simulation models of forest ecosystems synthesize a broad array of concepts from
tree physiology, community ecology, hydrology, soil physics, soil chemistry and soil …

This report summarizes four country studies that were undertaken as part of the UNEP"
Country Case Studies on Climate Change Impacts and Adaptations Assessment." These …

There are strong uncertainties regarding LAI dynamics in forest ecosystems in response to
climate change. While empirical growth & yield models (G&YMs) provide good estimations …

A simulation approach is used to describe annual tree growth and tree mortality from the
output of a physiologically based model (FORSANA). Height and diameter growth are …

Climate warming due to the enhanced greenhouse effect is expected to have a significant
impact on the natural environment and human activity in high latitudes. Because of its …
