Partitioning risks of tree mortality by modes of death in managed and unmanaged northern hardwoods and mixedwoods

Abstract: We used a permanent sample plot network established to monitor the effects of forest management practiced in mature northern hardwood and mixedwood stands in Québec, Canada to address two important questions related to tree mortality: (1) How does partial cutting affect tree mortality? (2) Which variables best explain tree mortality by different modes of death (standing death, uprooting or stem breakage)? Decennial tree deaths were lower after partial cutting than in unharvested plots, but the annual proportio… Show more

“… Girardin et al (2016) confirm a recent intensification of the impacts of hydroclimatic variability on the radial growth of both Jack pine and black spruce; these impacts seem mainly driven by a negative sensitivity to previous summer temperature and a positive sensitivity to summer soil moisture of both previous and current years. Guillemette et al (2017) show that the annual risk of mortality in northern hardwoods and mixed woods of Quebec is 3.6 times lower where annual temperature is low (2.3 % at 0.8 °C) than in a location where annual temperature is high (8.1 % at 4 °C).…”
