Abstract

This project used dendrochronology to reconstruct the history of mountain pine beetle outbreaks over the last two centuries and to describe the relationship of outbreaks to varying climate conditions and fire history. The history of mountain pine beetle outbreaks was reconstructed from increment...

Abstract

Yellow-cedar has been dying across 600 miles of North Pacific coastal rain forest - from Alaska to British Columbia - since about 1880. Thirty years ago, a small group of pathologists began investigating possible biotic causes of the decline. When no biotic cause could be found, the scope broadened ...

Abstract

Despite the history of mountain pine beetle outbreaks in British Columbia, including the outbreak in the mid 1980s that affected timber supply in the Quesnel Timber Supply Area, little was known about the post-mortality rate of deterioration of wood quality and quantity, and the rate of change in...

Abstract

Climate warming during the past century has imposed recession of glaciers and perennial snow/ice patches along the entire Swedish Scandes. On the newly exposed forefields, subfossil wood remnants are being outwashed from beneath ice and snow bodies. In Scandinavia, this kind of detrital wood is a...
