Precommercial thinning increased diameter growth while maintaining mixedwood stands composition, 15 years after treatment.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Canadian Journal of Forest Research. 2023, Vol. 53 Issue 4, p255-270. 16p.
Abstract: Precommercial thinning could be a valuable tool for climate change adaptation, as it can promote stand diversity while increasing productivity. Softwood and hardwood stands are usually thinned following different methods, and we lack recommendations fo...

Abstract: Les forêts mixtes tempérées de l'est de l'Amérique du Nord sont aménagées par coupes partielles depuis plusieurs décennies. Pour s'assurer que la régénération contribue à remplacer les tiges de taille commerciale enlevées par la coupe, les aménagistes ...
Balsam fir (Abies balsamea) needles and their essential oil kill overwintering ticks (Ixodes scapularis) at cold temperatures.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
