Summary:
Since fire is most wide spread agent of change in the northern forest, society should know how climatic warming will influence the force. The fire history of the Mackenzie Delta Region is known only through fire suppresion records over the past 25 years. Spot checks on the landscape have been made, but no longer record of 5-20 decades is available. Tree ring approaches will be used in this study...

Summary:
Forestry researchers tend to study in detail their local forests yet for major issues such as global warming, it is necessary to conduct research over larger areas to understand impacts on Canadian forests and industry. This study attempts to better describe rates of decomposition and nutrient mineralization across Canadian forests in order to understand how forests are supplied with nutrients fo...
