Objectif(s): To model fire effects on Betula and Salis shrubs in Northern and Western Canada.

Description du projet: Plant samples will be collected in the field by the researcher after they become dormat for treatment in a lab experiment. Burning treatments will be conducted in the lab where environmental growing conditions and the plant physiological state at the time of the treatment can be better controled. This will be done in order to model the effects of fire on two types of shrubs.
