The Forestry Chronicle, 2023 Mixedwood stands, dominated by trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) and white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss), are an important fibre source in Canada’s boreal forest and provide a range of ecological services. We present results from a study

Ecosphere, 2021 The ranges of black and white spruce are largely sympatric, suggesting both species have similar climate requirements. The two species, however, are highly segregated across the landscape with black spruce most common on nutrient‐poor sites with cold ...

The spruce budworm, a potential threat for Norway spruce in eastern Canada?
The Forestry Chronicle, 2020 Norway spruce, an exotic tree species in North America, was largely used in reforestation programs in the province of Québec between 1972 and 1990. Several of these plantations are now reaching their commercial maturity and the resurgence of spruce ...

Patterns of cross-continental variation in tree seed mass in the Canadian Boreal Forest. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Seed mass is an adaptive trait affecting species distribution, population dynamics and community structure. In widely distributed species, variation in seed mass may reflect both genetic adaptation to local environments and adaptive phenotypic plasticity.
