Allometric equations model for estimating an above and below ground biomass of dipterocarp forest in the tropics [PDF]

Global Journal of Environmental Science and Management
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Accurate measurement of carbon stocks is essential for assessing the forest carbon dynamics. One of carbon stocks measurement is an allometric equation that offer a cost-effective alternative for estimating tree biomass and ...

Cumulative effects of natural and anthropogenic disturbances on the forest carbon balance in the oil sands region of Alberta, Canada; a pilot study (1985–2012)

Carbon Balance and Management, 2021
Background Assessing cumulative effects of anthropogenic and natural disturbances on forest carbon (C) stocks and fluxes, because of their relevance to climate change, is a requirement of environmental impact assessments (EIAs) in Canada.

The Canadian Fire Spread Dataset

Scientific Data
Satellite data are effective for mapping wildfires, particularly in remote locations where monitoring is rare. Geolocated fire detections can be used for enhanced fire management and fire modelling through daily fire progression mapping.

Drivers and Impacts of the Record-Breaking 2023 Wildfire Season in Canada

Nature Communications
The 2023 wildfire season in Canada was unprecedented in its scale and intensity, spanning from mid-April to late October and across much of the forested regions of Canada. Here, we summarize the main causes and impacts of this exceptional season.

Leaf nutrient traits of planted forests demonstrate a heightened sensitivity to environmental changes compared to natural forests

Frontiers in Plant Science
Leaf nutrient content (nitrogen, phosphorus) and their stoichiometric ratio (N/P) as key functional traits can reflect plant survival strategies and predict ecosystem productivity responses to environmental changes.

Climate change mitigation in Canada’s forest sector: a spatially explicit case study for two regions

Carbon Balance and Management, 2018
Background We determine the potential of forests and the forest sector to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by changes in management practices and wood use for two regions within Canada’s managed forest from 2018 to 2050.
