Intensive Forest Management in Ontario by F. W. Bell,Ontario. Ministry of Natural Resources,Ontario Forest Research Institute Pdf

This publication summarizes a workshop on the elements of the Ontario Forest Accord that relate to intensive forest management (IFM). The first section presents summaries of presentations made at four sessions: an introductory session on government, industry, and interest group perspectives on IFM; a practices session, with reviews of forest management trends & IFM practices under way in various jurisdictions; an applications session, covering such topics as software & simulators for forest operations planning & operator training, silvicultural methods, and decision support systems; and a session discussing social, environmental, & economic aspects of IFM. The second part summarizes breakout sessions used to solicit participant input to identify what is known & what needs to be known about IFM to adapt it for use in Ontario forests.

The Effects of Forest Management on Carbon Storage in Ontario's Forests by Stephen John Colombo,Ontario. Ministry of Natural Resources. Applied Research and Development Pdf

"This report examines how forest management can affect the carbon (C) balance of Ontario's forests. Ten forest management activities organized in four themes were examined: stand establishment (site preparation, planting, and vegetation management), growth enhancement (thinning, fertilization, and genetic improvement), forest protection (from forest fires, and insect and disease infestations), and harvesting (controlling the area occupied by roads, skid trails and landings, and reducing the area disturbed by harvesting)."--Document.

Adaptive Forest Management in Ontario by G. Blake MacDonald,R. W. Arnup,R. Keith Jones,Ontario Forest Research Institute Pdf

Adaptive management is a formal process for continually improving management policies and practices by learning from their outcomes. The objective of this paper is to outline the basic concepts of adaptive management, provide examples of successful adaptive management initiatives, and evaluate the potential of adaptive management for improving forest policies and practices in Ontario. Information for the paper was collected from on-line literature searches, literature reviews, and interviews with experts. Case studies from the literature are presented from the perspective of broad program issues and address common North American forest sector issues. They illustrate public, industrial, and hybrid approaches to adaptive management that provide relevant experience and success factors that will be instructive for implementing similar programs in Ontario.
