Livestock and the functional habitat of vicuñas in Ecuador : a new puzzle
(Wiley, 2018-01)Whether interactions between wildlife and livestock are competitive or facilitative is context dependent. Intermediary factors that explain how context (seasonal or regional characteristics of the ecological community) ... -
Sugar-Frosted Daphnia: an improved fixation technique for cladocera
(American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, 1978)Egg loss by preserved Daphnia was reduced from 35% to 10% by use of a chilled, as opposed to warm, solution of sucrose and Formalin. -
The enigma of Daphnia death rates
(American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, 1978)Birth rates, rates of population change, and mortality rates were computed for Daphnia pulex and Daphnia rosea collected at three separate stations in 2.5-ha meromictic Crawford Lake. Birth and death rates for the same ... -
Cutting versus herbicides: Tenth-year volume and release cost-effectiveness of sub-boreal conifer plantations
(2006)Few cost-effectiveness studies of vegetation management in conifer plantations are reported in the literature. This study provides follow-up cost-effectiveness analysis from research conducted at the Fallingsnow Ecosystem ... -
Differences in extrinsic tree quality and value of fibre production following alternative vegetation management treatments in Northwestern Ontario
(2011)We examined differences in stem quality, and volume and value of fibre produced by planted white spruce 16 years after vegetation management treatments in northwestern Ontario. Forest Vegetation Simulator (FVSOntario) was ... -
The influence of competition and species mixture on plantation-grown white spruce: Growth and foliar nutrient response after 20 years
(2014)A 20-year-old experimental white spruce plantation was used to identify key stand (neighbourhood competition) and soil (physical and chemical properties) factors influencing spruce growth (Periodic Basal Area Increment) ... -

Using the Carbon Budget Model of the Canadian Forest Sector (CBM-CFS3) to examine the impact of harvest and fire on carbon dynamics in selected forest types of the Canadian Boreal shield
(2012)The objective of the study was to assess the responsiveness of the Carbon Budget Model of the Canadian Forest Sector (CBM-CFS3) to management scenarios that included three rotation lengths (50, 100 and 250 years) under ... -
Benefit–cost analysis of vegetation management alternatives: an Ontario case study
(2011)Vegetation management practices are an integral component of forest management. In this paper, we report results of stand-level benefit–cost analyses of 12 vegetation management treatments applied at six study sites in ...
