Monitoring forest structure and treeline change drivers (5263)
Principal Investigator: Kruse, Stefan
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5947. The aim is to monitor vegetation changes in current climate warming for simulating past and future dynamics with an individual-based spatially explicit model (LAVESI). Therefore, our intentions are: 1. assessing stand inventories at diverse bioclimatic and environmental settings by a space-for-time approach 2. gat...


Treeline Dynamics in Western Canadian Arctic
Principal Investigator: Green, Scott
Licensed Year(s): 2009 2008
Summary: The project will examine past tree growth patterns at the northern treeline in Western Canada as a baseline to predict future growth responses to climate change. Additionally, the researchers will examine tree regeneration and plant associations at the northern treeline. Annual tree rings represent a growth response to local climate. Wide growth rings represent good growing conditions, and nar...


Ecology of white spruce populations beyond present treeline
Principal Investigator: Henry, Greg H. R.
Licensed Year(s): 1995 1994 1993 1991
Summary: The researchers will measure various parts of the trees and take seed samples found on tree islands. They will take small cores from the base of the largest stems to determine age and growth rates. The tree rings can show how well the tress were growing in the past, and this can be related to changes in the climate....


Climatic Change at the Forest-Tundra Boundary
Principal Investigator: Landhaeusser, Simon M.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990
Summary: To determine the maximum size of treeline tree species in a burned and unburned valley in the Caribou Hills, the mass of standing trees on different slopes and aspects will be estimated and related to the energy input. In 1992 the plots prepared in 1990 and planted and seeded in 1991, will be revisited and measurement of growth for the second growing season will be taken....
