This book was released on 2016 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2008, a Working Group that included British Columbia government staff (researchers, stewardship foresters, and wildlife habitat experts), a research consultant, and industry foresters was formed in the Cariboo Region of south-central British Columbia to determine how existing research concerning conifer#x13;broadleaf competitive relationships could be used to suggest change to free-growing guidelines for that region. The objective was to adjust free-growing criteria concerning broadleaf tree presence in coniferous plantations while maintaining consistency with biological thresholds for conifer growth that had been determined by local research. ...

Download or read book British Columbia s Inland Rainforest written by Susan K. Stevenson and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vast temperate rainforests of coastal British Columbia are world renowned, but much less is known about the other rainforest located 500 kilometres inland along the western slopes of the interior mountains. The unique integration of continentality and humidity in this region favours the development of lush rainforest communities that incorporate both coastal and boreal elements. This book brings together, for the first time, a broad spectrum of information about the ecology, management, and conservation of this distinctive ecosystem. Accessibly written and generously illustrated, the chapters examine the physical, social, economic, and ecological dimensions of the rainforest. They also look at how the delicate balance of this ecosystem has been threatened by human use and climate change. In the past, governments encouraged the forest industry to clearcut the “decadent” old stands and replace them with rapidly growing young trees of other species. More recently, out of concern for the ecological consequences of such practices, researchers have begun to examine alternative management strategies. This book offers a vision that combines various strategies in order to balance the conservation of the inland rainforest as a fully functioning ecosystem with human use of its diverse resources.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide is designed to provide a reference for identifying, detecting, assessing, and treating pine stem rusts in managed forest stands. The major rusts covered in the guide are western gall rust (Endocronartium harknessii), Comandra blister rust (Cronartium comandrae), stalactiform blister rust (C. coleosporoides), sweet fern blister rust (C. comptoniae), and white pine blister rust (C. ribicola). It gives keys to identification and information on rust behaviour and stand dynamics, rust management techniques and treatments, and criteria used for assessing individual trees in a free-growing survey of rust damage. The appendix contains a table indicating stem rust hazard and risk by British Columbia forest region and guidelines for pruning of white pine.

DeLong and published by British Columbia, Forest Science Program. This book was released on 2003 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide has two main goals: to assist users in classifying sample forest ecosystem sites in the field in the south-east Prince George Forest Region; and to provide interpretations for these site units that will assist in preparing management prescriptions. Following the introduction is a brief discussion of the biogeoclimatic classification system. Chapter 3 contains procedures for site description, identification, mapping, & interpretation. Chapters 4 to 11 present information about the biogeoclimatic units in the Region, tools for identification of biogeoclimatic & site units, descriptions of the site units, and direct management interpretations for the identified site units. Chapter 12 provides indirect interpretations for silvicultural systems and site preparation options, as well as some basic information on ecosystem management.

Download or read book Assessment of Silvicultural Systems Developed for Deep Snowpack Mule Deer Winter Range in the Central Interior of B C written by M. J. Waterhouse and published by British Columbia Forest Science Program. This book was released on 2005 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the central interior of British Columbia (Southern Interior Forest Region), Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) tends to occur in even-aged stands in the Interior Cedar-Hemlock Moist, Cool, Horsefly biogeoclimatic variant (ICHmk3). Douglas-fir stands are important from both forest industry and wildlife habitat management perspectives. Mule deer require mature and older Douglas-fir stands as winter range. In these ecosystems, Douglas-fir stands are typically clearcut, thereby seriously compromising habitat value as winter range. This is a pilot study to examine the response of vegetation (percent cover) and Douglas-fir regeneration (density and growth) to a range of opening sizes, opening orientation (along and across contours), and site preparation treatment (yes or no), 5 years post-harvest. The openings (15 165 m [0.25 ha], 30 165 m [0.5 ha], 60 165 m [1.0 ha], 60 330 m and 140 140 m [2.0 ha]) are options for group selection, patch cut, or clearcut silvicultural systems. Although most of the 19 tree, shrub, and grass species that mule deer could eat did not change in percent cover from pre-harvest to 5 years postharvest, the species that did change were most strongly affected by harvesting, not opening size. A major diet component, western redcedar (Thuja plicata), was reduced from 9.6 to 1.4% in the site-prepared openings, and from 9.4 to 3.9% in the openings not site-prepared, when comparing the pre-harvest to the 5th-year post-harvest assessment. However, in the 5 years since harvesting, this species has increased from 533 stems per ha to 783 stems per ha (47%) and should increase steadily in cover over time. Of note was a big increase in red raspberry (Rubus idaeus) (from 0.1% up to 14%) and a moderate increase in birch-leaved spirea (Spirea betufolia) (from 1% up to 6%); however, they generally occur in small amounts (
