• Strategic Plan for Forest Soils Research and Extension in British Columbia.
  http://www.for.gov.bc.ca/hre/pubs/pubs/1085.htm
  This strategic plan describes goals, objectives, strategies, and knowledge gaps for the forest soil research and extension program in British Columbia. The program addresses government (public) and forest industry priorities related to soil conservation and sustainable forest development. It is consistent with the strategies and plans of the B.C. Ministry of Forests Research Program at provincial and regional levels and other agencies' plans and programs such as Forest Renewal BC's Strategic Plan. Coordinated implementation of the soil research and extension program will promote synergy and reduce potential for duplication of effort, resulting in financial savings and more timely and applicable results. This will be facilitated through the formation of a technical subcommittee on British Columbia forest soils that will include members of government agencies, universities, industry, consultants, non-governmental organizations, extension partnerships and interested public. A key theme of this strateg ...

• Brave new breeding zones.
  http://www.for.gov.bc.ca/hre/pubs/pubs/1401.htm
  As the climate changes, seed from breeding programs will have to be deployed to new areas to ensure that it is adapted to the climate in which it is planted. To examine the direction and extent of these changes, lodgepole pine provenance test data was used to develop genetic maps based on current climate. Eleven breeding zones were delineated from the genetic maps in a manner that is expected to minimize maladaptation. The ‘climate envelop’ of each current breeding zone was defined and used in conjunction with future climate maps to map the location of future breeding zones. Comparisons of current and future locations of breeding zones indicate that some zones will shift up to substantially northward within 50 years. In addition, several zones will change significantly in spatial extent, with implications for future seed demand and conservation needs. ...

• Garry Oak (
  http://www.for.gov.bc.ca/hre/pubs/pubs/1425.htm
  This poster was displayed at a Garry Oak symposium and used to advise ecologists of a 2007 field guide (Technical Report 040) titled "Garry Oak (Quercus garryana) Plant Communities in British Columbia: A Guide to Identification". Technical Report 040 covers the native plant communities with a component of Garry oak (Quercus garryana) in British Columbia. The purpose of the guide is to standardize the use of plant communities in conservation and recovery of the Garry oak habitat, and thus to move toward an ecosystem approach. Standardized communities can provide a basis for mapping and inventory. The guide is also intended to provide targets for Garry oak habitat restoration, and could help identify reference communities, which are then monitored to detect long-term ecological trends. ...
