dc.description.abstract | boreal mixedwoods are an important element and the most productive forest type
in the canadian boreal forests. this research focused on the regeneration of stands burned
by an intense wild fire in black sturgeon boreal mixedwoods on former clearcut, partial-cut
and uncut compartment. species diversity, density, regeneration index and height of
regenerations were examined. a total of 12 species regenerated across the three different
harvesting operations. in general, the regeneration species richness in clearcut
compartment was the lowest among the three harvesting operations, but the differences
between partial-cut and uncut compartment varied. regeneration was dominated by
trembling aspen and jack pine. the total density of all regeneration species was higher in
harvested compartment than uncut control compartment. the density and regeneration
index of trembling aspen had a regeneration trend of decreasing from clearcut to partial-cut
to uncut, while the opposite was true to jack pine. trembling aspen, jack pine and
white birch formed the main canopy of the new stands while pin cherry, beaked hazel and
mountain maple dominated the understory layer. white spruce, black spruce and balsam
fir failed to regenerate in the burned clearcut, partial-cut and uncut compartment of this
boreal mixedwoods. | |
