This book was released on 1992 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1991, the development of a spatial forest data base over most of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Region was commissioned to provide the thematic basis for studies conducted for the forest fragmentation and biodiversity project under the forest landscape ecology program. The data base included a range of forest and vegetation cover classes, with the red pine and white pine stands restricted to those over 50 years of age. A method combining remote sensing and geographic information system technology was used for the project. This report describes the approach and method of the project as a whole and includes a summary of Phase I and more detailed information on Phase 2.

Marie, Ont. : Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources. This book was released on 1994 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1991, a spatial forest database over large regions of Ontario was initiated as the basis for research into forest fragmentation and biodiversity using data generated from the digital analysis of LANDSAT thematic mapper satellite data integrated into a geographic information system (GIS). The project was later extended into the the eastern segment of the Boreal forest system. This report describes preparation of the spatial forest data base over the eastern Boreal Forest Region that extends from the northern boundary of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Forest Region and the southern margin of the James Bay Lowland, between the Ontario-Quebec border and a point west of Michipicoten on Lake Superior. The report describes the methodology used to produce the data base and results, including mapping of water, dense and sparse conifer forest, mixed forest, dense and sparse deciduous forest, poorly vegetated areas, recent cutovers of less than 10 years, old cutovers and burns, recent burns of less than 10 years, wetlands, bedrock outcrops, agriculture, built-up areas, and mine tailings.

This book was released on 1992 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Old Growth Forest Fragmentation and Biodiversity Program is designed to address knowledge gaps, improve communication among partners, and address the needs of the committees involved in the policy development process. This report is part of the old growth program that deals with the problem of the fauna associated with old growth pine. To provide direction to the planned study of fauna of red and white pine old-growth forests in Ontario, the opinions of 35 selected members of the scientific community who had experience in forest ecosystem ecology and expertise in a particular faunal group were surveyed via two questionnaires. Recommendations are included.

Marie, Ont. : Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources. This book was released on 1993 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study quantified the landscape characteristics of eastern white pine and red pine forests in Ontario using a combination of LANDSAT TM imagery and aerial photographs to develop a spatial data base of 275,000 sq km. Analyses on spatial distribution, representativeness, configuration, and fragmentation were conducted in a GIS environment. Results are presented by pine type by both Hills' ecological hierarchy and the administrative hierarchy of the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources.

Marie, Ont. : Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources. This book was released on 1993 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Description of the small mammal communities inhabiting old pine forests and the other forest types common in Schembri, Way-White, and Wlasy Townships in the Territorial District of Algoma, about 100 km east of the City of Sault Ste. Marie. The study identified whether old pine forests represented unique habitats for small mammals, and predicted the impact of timber harvest on small mammal communities. Small mammals were collected using Victor mouse traps in cut and uncut stands of old growth white pine, hard maple, boreal mixedwood, and black spruce.
Download or read book Development of a Landscape Ecological Model for Management of Ontario Forests written by Larry E. Band and published by Sault Ste. Marie, Ont. : Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources. This book was released on 1994 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the work accomplished under Phase 2 of a project to develop and apply a landscape ecological model to aid in the understanding and management of Ontario forest ecosystems. The first year concentrated on the initial development and testing of a data and simulation system to predict and understand forest productivity and water cycling for a test area in the Temagami District of Ontario. The second year's efforts further extended and developed the landscape model for three additional ecosystems along a significant east-west gradient across the province. The sites were chosen to provide both a broad geographic range in location and biome and a set of comprehensive measurements of forest productivity and hydrology for model diagnosis and validation. The three areas incorporated into the east-west gradient are the Petawawa National Forest Institute near Pembroke, the Turkey Lakes Experimental Watershed north of Sault Ste. Marie, and the area around Rinker Lake, north of Thunder Bay. Modifications and improvements were implemented in the digital terrain analysis methods, in the user interface, and in specific process modules.
