Composition and Dynamics of the Understory Vegetation in the Boreal Forests of Quebec

2003
Abstract The boreal forest of Quebec extends from the 48th to the 58th northern parallels (fig. 10.1). It can be subdivided into four forest domains (from south to north): the Abies balsamea (Mill.) and Betula papyrifera (Marsh.) domain, the Picea mariana (Mill.) and feathermoss domain, the Picea mariana lichen woodland, and the forest ...

Response of understory vegetation of Adirondack forests to nitrogen additions

Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 1998
The influence of N pulses in the form of experimental additions of HNO3at two times ambient and (NH4)2SO4at two and four times ambient on the herbaceous and woody understory plants in three Adirondack Mountain hardwood forests was evaluated. Addition of (NH4)2SO4decreased cover of dominant herbs and woody seedlings at Woods Lake, a site in the western ...

A Modification of the Line Intercept Method for Sampling Understory Vegetation

Journal of Range Management, 1963
No single technique of vegetation measurement is universally applicable. All approaches have features and limitations which control use to specific study or inventory requirements and area characteristics. Not excluded are problems of measuring the composition and density of foragebearing twigs and stems in woody understories.

Nonnative vegetation dynamics in the understory of a fragmented temperate forest1

The Journal of the Torrey Botanical Society, 2019
Although the conditions that render forests likely to support nonnative plants are well documented, there are surprisingly few data on the long-term dynamics of nonnative invasive species in eastern temperate forests. We examined 11 years of compositional and structural change in a small (60 ha) forest preserve in Connecticut with abundant invasive ...

Control of Understory Vegetation in Allegheny Hardwood Stands with Oust

Northern Journal of Applied Forestry, 1988
Abstract Sulfometuron methyl (methyl 2-[[[[(4,6-dimethyl-2-pyrimidinyl) - amino]carbonyl]amino]sulfonyl]-benzoate), marketed under the trade name Oust Weed Killer by E. I. DuPont de Nemours and Co., was evaluated for its ability to control three herbaceous (hay-scented fern, New York fern, and short husk grass) and two woody species ...

Impact of canopy openness on understory vegetation in beech forests [PDF]

, 2012
This research was conducted in Medvednica Nature Park, with aim to determine impact of canopy openness on understory vegetation in beech forest and to test how many hemispherical photographs per plot is enough to obtain similar results. Overall, seven 20 x 20 meters plots in three beech forest associations (Luzulo-Fagetum sylvaticae Meusel 1937 ...

Effects of Ozone on Understory Vegetation in the Mixed Conifer Forest

1999
The mixed conifer forest ecosystem of the San Bernardino Mountains includes all the producers (plants and algae), consumers (animals and other heterotrophs), and decomposers (bacteria, fungi, and other single-celled organisms) found in the forest, all of which contribute to the complex processes of energy flow, storage, and biogeochemical cycling ...
