Charcoal in Organic Horizon and Surface Mineral Soil in a Boreal Forest Fire Chronosequence of Western Quebec: Stocks, Depth Distribution, Chemical Properties and a Synthesis of Related Studies

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2017
Wildfires are a major driver of carbon stocks and ecosystem development in Canadian boreal forests, but there is little information on amounts and properties of the charcoal produced.

Comparaison des prévisions à court et à long terme d’un modèle de croissance à l’échelle du peuplement avec celles d’un modèle à l’échelle de l’arbre

The Forestry Chronicle, 2018
Différents modèles de croissance forestière sont aujourd’hui disponibles pour simuler l’évolution des peuplements forestiers du Québec. Pour choisir le modèle qui répond le mieux à ses besoins, l’utilisateur a donc besoin d’informations.

Ecological factors shaping post‐fire resilience in mature black spruce forests of eastern North America

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 2, February 2026.
Our study provides an assessment of the fire resilience of mature black spruce (BS) forests. A third of pre‐fire mature closed‐canopy stands are expected to transition into open woodlands. While mature BS‐dominated forests are considered more fire‐resilient than younger stands, our study raises concerns about their capacity to persist under the ...

Ecological factors underlying the spatiotemporal dynamics in a key forest beetle pollinator Facteurs écologiques à la base de la dynamique spatio‐temporelle d'un important coléoptère forestier pollinisateur

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 590-599, November 2025.
Eusphalerum, an understudied beetle pollinator in North America, comprises over 50% of beetle specimens collected using flight‐intercept traps in forests across New Brunswick, Canada. In a study investigating its phenology, congeneric aggregation and population dynamics, we demonstrated that Eusphalerum exhibits unique phenology distinct from other ...

A generalized modeling framework for spatially extensive species abundance prediction and population estimation

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Spatially explicit estimates of species abundance and distribution are increasingly needed to support conservation planning and management across multiple spatial scales. We present a generalized modeling framework that bridges the gap between local studies and regional to national planning by compiling and harmonizing diverse datasets to ...

Increased retention after harvest better maintains carabid abundance in boreal mixedwood forests under two climate change scenarios

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 10, Page 2541-2554, October 2025.
Our findings suggest that under lower emission scenarios, high‐retention harvesting is an effective strategy to conserve carabids over the next two decades and can increase species' resilience throughout short‐term periods of stress. Under more extreme emissions scenarios, high‐retention harvesting can be used to conserve carabid populations for ...
