Abstract:
Objectives:
To develop and demonstrate a better understanding of how and when to target
vegetation management efforts to maximize white pine production and quality.
Location:
North Bay District
Key Deliverables:
Reports (journal and technical report versions)- Temporal and Spatial
Effects of Woody and Herbaceous Vegetation on Early Establishment and
Growth of White Pine: Part I: Implications for Shelterwood Management;
Part II: Implications for Restoration on Clearcut Sites. Report- Temporal
and Spatial Effects of Woody and Herbaceous Competition on the Ecophysiology
of White Pine.
Expected Benefits:
A protocol for vegetative management of white pine
Sources of Funding:
