Disturbing forest disturbances

open access: yesThe Forestry Chronicle, 2005
The forest sector in Canada makes a significant contribution to the wealth of the nation. Many of our forest ecosystems, like the phoenix, need fire for rebirth and renewal. In contrast, other forests rely on a cool, wet disintegration driven by insects and their commensal fungi feeding on trees to effect this renewal.

Survey to Evaluate Escape of Eucalyptus spp. Seedlings from Plantations in Southeastern USA

open access: yesInternational Journal of Forestry Research, 2013
Interest in biomass-based energy in the southeastern Unites States has led to increased need for fast-growing tree species. Several Eucalyptus species exhibit characteristics that make them attractive in the bioenergy context. However, some of these also

Winter Climate Variability, De-Icing Salt and Streetside Tree Vitality

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
De-icing salts are applied to roads and walking surfaces to mitigate winter hazards resulting from ice, snow and freezing rain. The vitality of streetside trees, especially those growing in densely built urban areas, is compromised by repeated exposure ...

Invasion of a Legume Ecosystem Engineer in a Cold Biome Alters Plant Biodiversity

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Plant ecosystem engineers are widely used to combat land degradation. However, the ability of those plants to modulate limiting abiotic and biotic resources of other species can cause damage to ecosystems in which they become invasive.
