Modeling the Effect of the Spatial Pattern of Airborne Lidar Returns on the Prediction and the Uncertainty of Timber Merchantable Volume

Remote Sensing, 2017
Lidar data are regularly used to characterize forest structures. In this study, we determine the effects of three lidar attributes (density, spacing, scanning angle) on the accuracy and the uncertainty of timber merchantable volume estimates of balsam ...

Forest Dieback of Abies Balsamea in Eastern North America

Forests
An increased shift in climate change contributes to accelerated forest dieback around the world. Forest dieback is the process of a forest ecosystem suffering from disease, with mortality rates increasing among trees, potentially leading to the death of the ecosystem. Dieback can be caused through a variety of biotic and abiotic factors such as climate

A mechanistic perspective of possible influences of climate change on defoliating insects in North America's boreal forests

Silva Fennica, 1996
There is no doubt that tree survival, growth, and reproduction in North America's boreal forests would be directly influenced by the projected changes in climate if they occur.

Responses of isolated balsam-fir stem segments to exogenous ACC, IAA, and IBA

Forestry Research
In this investigation, the effects of exogenous indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) on anatomical development within cultured segments of Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.
