ABSTRACT Vegetation succession following fire disturbances has long been of interest in ecology, but the evolution of landscape pattern and structure following low-severity...

ABSTRACT Large and small scale natural disturbances shape and define characteristics of forest stands. This research examines the response of a western hemlock stand following...

ABSTRACT Dendrochronological analyses were conducted across a gradient of productivity and soil drainage quality characterizing four vegetation types in a low-productivity...

ABSTRACT A retrospective study was undertaken in an old Mountain Pine Beetle (MPB) attacked forest to gain insight in stand dynamics post-beetle attack. Extent of mortality,...

ABSTRACT A mountain pine beetle (MPB) epidemic is currently ravaging large areas of interior British Columbia (BC) with significant implications for ecosystem services including...

ABSTRACT Most natural disturbances leave structural legacies that are used by a variety of organisms as forest regrows. Forest management prescribes retention of “wildlife tree...

ABSTRACT In 1997, 30 one-ha stem mapped plots were located in randomly selected juvenile lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta Dougl. Ex Loud.) leading stands aged 15-20 years. The...

The document outlines a collaborative effort involving various stakeholders to establish ecologically-driven strategies for the preservation of downed woody material (DWM) and...

In British Columbia, many of our second-growth stands have regenerated as mixed-species stands and yet our understanding of how to manage these stands to achieve multiple goals...

This report's purpose is to address the significant mountain pine beetle epidemic in British Columbia's lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta var. latifolia Engelm.) forests and it...

ABSTRACT A sensitivity analysis was performed to evaluate general model dynamics and model predictions were compared to independent datasets from forests of northwestern BC....

Abstract: We examined young harvested (41–100) and naturally disturbed mature (101–250), and old (>250) temperate rainforests on the central and north coast of British...
