Structure, Carbon Dynamics, and Silvichronology of Boreal Forests
Principal Investigator: Osawa, Akira
Licensed Year(s): 2019 2018 2016 2015 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006
Summary: Main objective of the field work is to collect data in jack pine and black spruce forests on annual movement of organic matter and carbon. Additional objective is to conduct a regional study of stand development and its relationship to environmental factors in a several-square-kilometer study area of mostly black spruce. Five methods will be used. 1) Soil and air temperature will be measured...

Carbon dynamics in chronosequence of boreal forest ecosystems: a production ecological approach
Principal Investigator: Osawa, Akira
Licensed Year(s): 2017 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001
Summary: Northern forests are closely connected to the problem of global warming because they are likely to absorb much of the carbon dioxide that is dumped into the air by humans. The amount that these forests are absorbing, however, is not clear. The research w...

Jack Pine Forest Research
Principal Investigator: Osawa, Akira
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: The researcher will conduct research on jack pine forests along the highways in Wood Buffalo National Park and will also collect stem increment cores from black spruce trees around the latitudinal tree line near Inuvik. This research will consist of remeasurement of permanent plots, foliage distribution and light measurement, establishment of pruning experiment and stem core sampling near Inuvik....

Testing the Allometric Theory of the Self-Thinning Rule
Principal Investigator: Osawa, Akira
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1987
Summary: The researcher and his team will estimate the number of trees and monitor individual growth in flagged and tagged stands, as well as estimating foliage weight of individual trees. They will measure light conditions in various jack pine stands, as well as collect stem cores to be analyzed and compared with stem cores from other parts of the northern hemisphere for the possibility of accelerated gr...
