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...


The Ecological Genetics of Seedling Drought Resistance in Jack Pine
Principal Investigator: Wein, Ross
Licensed Year(s): 1989
Summary: Dr. Wein and his assistant will plant jack pine seedlings in the Reid Lake and Sandy Lake area where the dry conditions simulate a drought. They hope to find a species of jack pine which will survive drought conditions in more southern forests....
