Tree-related microhabitats (hereafter, “TreMs”) are key components of forest biodiversity but they are still poorly known in North American hardwood forests. The spatial patterns of living trees bearing TreMs (hereafter, “TreM-trees”) also remain to
In the boreal forest of Ontario and Quebec, where Resolute tenures are located, biodiversity monitoring is usually carried out by the provincial agencies responsible for wildlife policies and wildlife management. 100% of the woodlands we manage are certified to at least oneindependent certification sta...
The circum-polar boreal forest has played an important role in the wealth of northern nations since the 15th century. Its natural resources spurred strategic geopolitical developments beginning in the 16th century but intense development of the boreal forest is largely limited to the 20th century. In...
, which can be accessed at this website:Ontario.ca/page/fire-intensity-codes. Various industries (or members of the public) can access these regionally-based datasets to make decisions on the modification of cessation of any activities that might potentially create sparks and cause forest fires....
we argue that the Act alone is not sufficient to ensure sustainability of Finnish forests. For example, active forest management and forest fire suppression have made forest fires rare in Finland, which have been shown to threaten fire-associated and saproxylic species (Kouki et al.2012). Secondl...
in the previous section. Further, the GWP metrics for NTCFs considered are representative of global average responses10, although impacts from NTCFs can be spatially and temporally heterogeneous. For instance, the climate impact response to an emission pulse is generally higher in the northern ...

This study investigates the relationship between activity and the occurrence of lightning-ignited forest fires in the Northwestern Region of Ontario. We found that the Duff Moisture Code (a component of the Fire Weather Index System) and the multiplicity of the negative lightning discharges were the...
