Stronger influence of anthropogenic disturbance than climate change on century-scale compositional changes in northern forests

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 10 April 2020

Published in Nature Communications 10: 1265. Predicting future ecosystem dynamics depends critically on an improved understanding of how disturbances and climate change have driven long-term ecological changes in the past. Here we assembled a dataset of >100,000...

Modeling black spruce wood fiber attributes with terrestrial laser scanning

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 10 April 2020

Published in Can. J. For. Res. 49(6): 661-669 A model comparison approach, based on Akaike’s information criterion, was used to evaluate the contribution of terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) to the estimation of wood fiber attributes at the tree level for black spruce...

Disentangling the effect of drought on stand mortality and productivity in northern temperate and boreal forests

by Audrey Verreault | 10 April 2020

Published in Journal of Applied Ecology 56(3): 758-768 It has recently been reported that changing precipitation patterns increase tree mortality and reduce biomass accumulation in northern temperate and boreal forests. Functional diversity can mitigate the impacts of...

Multi-trait genomic selection for weevil resistance, growth, and wood quality in Norway spruce

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 24 October 2019

Published in Evol. Appl. 2019: eva.12823 Plantation-grown trees have to cope with an increasing pressure of pest and disease in the context of climate change, and breeding approaches using genomics may offer efficient and flexible tools to face this pressure. In the...

Balsam fir stands of northeastern North America are resilient to spruce plantation

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 24 October 2019

Published in For. Ecol. Manage. 450: 117504 Globally, there is an increasing demand for wood products. Because of their productivity, forest plantations will increasingly serve to meet this demand. A cumulative anthropogenic disturbance, such as a plantation scenario,...
