Book Description
The main objective of this report was to provide a review of the information available on the natural regeneration of white spruce in western North America with specific reference to the prairie provinces of Canada. Information was drawn from relevant studies in areas such as Alaska, British Columbia, Ontario and the northwestern United States. The methods used involved standard techniques for research, review and assembly of the literature. In general, scarifications in combination with some type of shelterwood system along with herbicidal or mechanical control of competing vegetation in establishment years is the most efficient and economical means of spruce natural regeneration. Prescribed burning is not generally supported as a treatment as this often disrupts soil qualities such as moisture and pH rendering it an unsuitable seedbed for spruce seedlings. Germination and survival are favored on mineral seedbeds and seem reduced on burned areas. Germination delays are also a common consequence of burned sites. In all, white spruce requires specific environmental conditions and requirements for natural regeneration. (Abstract shortened by UMI.).

Synopsis of Information on White, Engelmann, and Black Spruce Natural Regeneration in North America
Author: Everett B. Peterson
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Black spruce
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
Report providing a subjective assessment of the scope, applicability, and overall reliability of existing published references related to natural regeneration of white, Engelmann, and black spruce in North America and a synopsis of references on the subject. The references are listed alphabetically by author for each of 563 references, based on a dBASE IV database coded according to 105 keywords. The database allows the user to search geographically, by species of spruce, by forest section within Canada, or by any of the keywords listed. The emphasis is on white spruce in a boreal mixedwood setting but also includes information on natural regeneration of Engelmann spruce and upland black spruce, plus a limited amount of Norway spruce. Most of the references are from the 1990s.

Regenerating British Columbia's Forests
Author: R. Parish
Publisher: UBC Press
ISBN: 0774844701
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
Regenerating British Columbia's Forests will assist those responsible for planning reforestation projects to reach informed decisions and will challenge them to consider primarily the biological factors basic to reforestation success rather than short-term costs and production technology. Although its main audience is practising foresters and forestry students of British Columbia, the text will be of considerable interest to foresters in other parts of Canada, the United States, and Europe who manage reforestation.
