Summary:
This project seeks to identify and measure specific characteristics of plants to determine the current baseline conditions of the vegetation, collect grass samples to test for different species of fungi and integrate traditional knowledge of environmental systems with current biological sampling.
Transects (a long straight line) will be measured out from the edge of a road to about 1 km away fr...

Summary:
The vegetation component of the 2002 baseline studies will focus on completion of the vegetation typing surveys. Initially, a reconnaissance flight will be required over Sahtu Private Lands along the study corridor. This flight will be used to identify sites for detailed sampling. Sites will be selected to represent the major ecological land units. Where possible, sample sites will be grouped to...

Summary:
The BC Terrestrial Ecosystem Mapping inventory standard will be used to provide a uniform method of describing vegetation, soil and terrain based on air photo interpretation and field data collection. The sampling sites will be located on Crown Land contained within a 1 km corridor with 'bulges' in areas of special concern such as river crossings. Surveying sites accessed by helicopter, boat, veh...
