This book was released on 2005 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication contains an abridged version of a background paper that analyzed the status of policy, legislation, and planning mechanisms for biodiversity conservation in Canada's forests and proposed a framework for classifying, assessing, and reporting on the extent of conservation lands in Canada. The publication also includes the proceedings of a side event at the 12th World Forestry Congress (Quebec City, 2003) whose primary objective was to introduce the proposed framework and to seek international & national perspectives on it. The response to this presentation is organized around four questions that sought to determine the comprehensiveness, utility, and practicality of implementation of the framework and its compatibility with other reporting processes.

Download or read book Emulating Natural Forest Landscape Disturbances written by Ajith H. Perera and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2008-01-11 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is a natural forest disturbance? How well do we understand natural forest disturbances and how might we emulate them in forest management? What role does emulation play in forest management? Representing a range of geographic perspectives from across Canada and the United States, this book looks at the escalating public debate on the viability of natural disturbance emulation for sustaining forest landscapes from the perspective of policymakers, forestry professionals, academics, and conservationists. This book provides a scientific foundation for justifying the use of and a solid framework for examining the ambiguities inherent in emulating natural forest landscape disturbance. It acknowledges the divergent expectations that practitioners face and offers a balanced view of the promises and challenges associated with applying this emerging forest management paradigm. The first section examines foundational concepts, addressing questions of what emulation involves and what ecological reasoning substantiates it. These include a broad overview, a detailed review of emerging forest management paradigms and their global context, and an examination of the ecological premise for emulating natural disturbance. This section also explores the current understanding of natural disturbance regimes, including the two most prevalent in North America: fire and insects. The second section uses case studies from a wide geographical range to address the characterization of natural disturbances and the development of applied templates for their emulation through forest management. The emphasis on fire regimes in this section reflects the greater focus that has traditionally been placed on understanding and managing fire, compared with other forms of disturbance, and utilizes several viewpoints to address the lessons learned from historical disturbance patterns. Reflecting on current thinking in the field, immediate challenges, and potential directions, the final section moves deeper into the issues of practical applications by exploring the expectations for and feasibility of emulating natural disturbance through forest management.

Working group discussions were a major component of the workshop and were aimed at identifying gaps in current conservation efforts, conservation priorities, research initiatives to support conservation priorities, and promoting opportunities for increased collaborative efforts. A major output of the workshop was the development of a framework for a national strategy to focus on the sound management of Canada's forest genetic resources. This report presents the workshop proceedings, including the contributed papers on forest genetic conservation.
