Protecting White Spruce Understories when Harvesting Aspen by Canada-Alberta Partnership Agreement in Forestry,Alberta. Forest Service,Brace Forest Services,Canada. Forestry Canada Pdf

This project was aimed primarily at technology tranfer, demonstrating the integration of silvicultural and harvesting techniques for protecting spruce understories in mixedwoods. This report provides details of the silvicultural component. It stresses post-harvest implications, particularly blowdown risk and growth and yield potential of released understory, and regeneration and growth of spruce, aspen, and poplar on mechanically harvested mixedwood sites. The project addresses concerns about maintaining the coniferous component of mixedwood forests and finding alternatives to clearcutting. It covers the current status of operational understory protection and some related aspects of integrated resource management.

Stand Development After Partial Cutting of Mature Mixed Stands of White Spruce and Aspen in Manitoba by W. J. Ball,N. R. Walker,Northern Forestry Centre (Canada) Pdf

In the Riding Mountain Experimental Forest Area of south-west Manitoba, stands of 100-year-old mixed white spruce and aspen were partially cut in 1953-55 and scarified, leaving treatments that retained from 14 to 100 percent of total stand basal area. This report describes the composition of the stands, based on measurements of 88 permanent sample plots before and after cutting and in 1992. Stand development is described in terms of mortality and growth of the residual stands (including advance growth), hardwood reproduction and softwood regeneration on undisturbed seedbeds, and softwood regeneration on scarified strips within the plots. Options for renewing mature mixedwood stands are also discussed.

Silviculture of Temperate and Boreal Broadleaf-conifer Mixtures by P. G. Comeau,Keith Douglas Thomas,British Columbia. Ministry of Forests. Research Branch Pdf

This volume presents papers given at a workshop held to review current knowledge of the silviculture of temperate and boreal broadleaf-conifer mixtures and the consequences of growing mixed stands. Topics of the papers include the importance of mixedwood stands, managing birch-dominated mixed stands, competition dynamics, silvicultural systems, stand dynamics, vegetation management, red alder-conifer stands, mixedwood management research, white spruce and aspen stands, vertical stratification in mixed-species stands, habitat management for game and parasite control, simulation of long-term impacts of alder/fir mixtures, understory protection, fertilisation, control of spruce weevils, and litter decomposition.
