Fire History of Appalachian Forests of the Lower St-Lawrence Region (Southern Quebec)

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 14 November 2022

Published in Forests: 8, 120. Sugar maple (Acer saccharum) forests are among the main forest types of eastern North America. Sugar maple stands growing on Appalachian soils of the Lower St-Lawrence region are located at the northeastern limit of the northern hardwood...

Precarious resilience of the boreal forest of eastern North America during the Holocene

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 14 November 2022

Published in Forest Ecology and Management, 485: 118954. The dynamics of the boreal forest have followed several successional trajectories during the Holocene caused by recurrent stand-scale, abiotic and biotic disturbances. Under stable environmental conditions, site...

Long-term fire history of maple (Acer) forest sites in the central St. Lawrence Lowland, Quebec

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 11 November 2022

Published in Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 46: 822-831. In the St-Lawrence Lowlands, sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) is considered the dominant species of old-growth deciduous forests, whereas red maple (Acer rubrum L.) tends to dominate sites recently...

Published in The Holocene, 25: 1246-1256. https://doi.org/10.1177/0959683615580863 Eastern hemlock (Tsuga canadensis) is a shade-tolerant tree species of the temperate conifer-hardwood forests of northeastern North America, the northern distribution limit of which...

Comparative methods for reconstructing fire histories at the stand scale using charcoal records in peat and mineral soils

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 11 November 2022

Published in Forest Ecology and Management, 433: 376-385. Analysis and ¹⁴C dating of charcoal fragments ≥ 2 mm buried in mineral soils make it possible to obtain a stand-scale portrait of Holocene fires that occurred in well-drained, fire-prone environments, as well...
