• Site index curves and tables for British Columbia: Coastal species.
  http://www.for.gov.bc.ca/hre/pubs/pubs/0001.htm
  The objective of this report was to disseminate, in graphical and tabular format, site index relationships selected by the Coastal Forest Productivity Council in cooperation with the Ministry of Forest and Lands for use on the coast of British Columbia. The species included coastal Douglas-fir (pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco), western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla (Raf.) Sarg.), western redcedar (Thuja plicata Donn), amibilis fir (Abies amabilis (Dougl.) Forb.), Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis (Bong.) Carr.), and red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.). The figures and corresponding tables were produced by a computerized plotting system, GRAFLEX. ...

• Growth intercept models and tables for British Columbia - interior species.
  http://www.for.gov.bc.ca/hre/pubs/pubs/0083.htm
  This field guide insert presents the growth intercept models and tables available for use in the interior of British Columbia. Included are growth intercept models and tables for: Lodgepole Pine, Interior Spruce, Douglas-fir, Western Hemlock, Subalpine Fir, Western Redcedar, and Western Larch. The Options section notes any options and alternative models or model formulations, and provides references that are available from the above address. The tables are designed for rough estimation of site index in the field. The formulation or the appropriate publication should be consulted for accurate site index determination. The arbitrary range of site index in the tables is 5-40 m. The tables are in a common format for consistency among species and do not necessarily represent the range of site indices found in the model development data. Site index is based on top height and a reference age of 50 years (breast height) for all species. Estimates of growth intercept and site index that are beyond the range of the ...

• Effects of red alder on stand dynamics and nitrogen availability (FRBC Project HQ96400-RE MOF EP1121.01).
  http://www.for.gov.bc.ca/hre/pubs/pubs/0161.htm
  This extension note provides a summary of results obtained to date from studies initiated in 1992 to document and demonstrate the effects of different amounts and spatial arrangements of red alder on forest productivity, stand dynamics, and nitrogen availability in broadleaf-conifer mixedwood stands in coastal British Columbia. Replacement series experiments have been planted at two locations in B.C. to evaluate the effects of various proportions of red alder when grown in mixture with Douglas-fir. Mixedwood plantations have also been established at three locations following an additive design. In the additive design, Douglas-fir and western redcedar were planted at a density of 1100 tph (with the two species planted in equal proportions at alternating planting spots), and one of eight "broadleaf" density treatments was subsequently applied to randomly selected plots. These treatments included: 0, 50, 100, 200 and 400 red alder per hectare, 50 bigleaf maple per hectare, 200 Sitka alder per hectare, and a d ...

• Preliminary assessment of selected communities of soil organisms under different conifer species.
  http://www.for.gov.bc.ca/hre/pubs/pubs/1086.htm
  This study used the second-growth plantations of Douglas-fir, western hemlock, Sitka spruce, and western redcedar of the Ministry of Forests Experimental Project 571 (species-espacement trial established in 1965-1966 on southern Vancouver Island) to take a preliminary look at the effects of different conifer species on collembolan, oribatid mite, and macrofungal species. For all three groups of soil organisms, overall frequency or abundance and diversity were noticeably less under western redcedar compared with the other conifer species. Using similarity indices, we found that the macrofungus communities (species and abundance) differed under the various conifers. The community of forest floor oribatid mites under Douglas-fir was distinct, but we could not detect differences between the other conifer species. We could not detect differences in forest floor collembolan communities between any of the conifers. ...
