Ecophysiological responses of black spruce (Picea mariana) seedlings to nutrient supply, N-P-K ratio and photoperiod at current and elevated CO2 concentration
(2012-11-10)The relationship between plant growth and nitrogen supply is frequently used in growth models to predict growth performance under global climate change scenarios. However, the relationship may be changed under elevated ... -
Ecophysiological responses of white birch seedlings to soil temperature and phosphorus supply under current and doubled carbon dioxide concentration
(2009)To investigate the responses of some physiological and morphological traits to different soil temperature and phosphorus supply under current and doubled carbon dioxide concentration ([CO2]), white birch (Betula papyrifera ... -
Effects of CO2 elevation on the responses to flooding in black spruce (P. mariana) and tamarack (L. larcina) seedlings
(2016)Anthropogenic activities have been increasing the atmospheric CO2 concentration globally and the increase is predicted to continue to rise in the future. Increased CO2 has been shown to increase photosynthetic rates as ... -
Effects of nitrogen supply on the physiological and morphological responses to elevated [CO2] in yellow birch (Betula alleghaniensis Britt.)
(2023)Ongoing climate changes can substantially impact soil nitrogen availability through its effects on other environmental conditions such as temperature, precipitation, and the frequency and intensity of extreme whether ... -
Effects of Photoperiod, Soil Moisture and Soil Temperature on the Northward Migration Potential of Jack Pine under the Scenario of Doubled Atmospheric CO2 Concentration
(2016)Climate envelope models predict that boreal trees can potentially migrate northward by as much as 10º by 2100 as a consequence of the predicted climate change associated with the doubling of atmospheric CO2 concentration, ... -
The effects of soil compaction on the germination and growth of Picea mariana and Pinus banksiana
(2020)Soil compaction has long been an issue for the forestry industry. Soil compaction can reduce soil aeration, porosity and drainage, and restrict the growth and success of trees and other plants. The objective of this study ... -
Effects of water availability, longer photoperiod, and elevated [CO2] on the potential of the northward migration in trembling aspen (populus tremuloides michx.)
(2019)Based on climate envelope models, boreal tree species may migrate to higher latitudes (approximately 10˚N toward the north) in response to rapid climate changes by the end of this century. Multiple factors will likely ... -
Interactive effects of elevated CO2 and temperature, nutrition, and ectomycorrhizas on morphological traits and summer shoot formation in jack pine
(2022)Understanding the responses of trees, ectomycorrhizal fungi (ECM) and their association to climate change can be challenging due to their interactions with multiple environmental factors. The combined impacts of elevated ... -
Interactive effects of soil temperature and resource availability on physiological and growth responses of white birch (Betula papyrifera) seedlings to atmospheric carbon dioxide elevation
(2009)Predicting the impacts of future high atmospheric CO2 concentration, [CO2], on the physiology and growth of boreal forests is complicated by interactions of CO2 with other environmental conditions. Two-factor CO2 x environment ... -
Phenology, growth and physiological responses to photoperiod and elevated [CO2] of boreal white birch (Betula papyrifera Marsh): implications to climate change-induced northward migration
(2019)With the increase in average global temperature due to rising atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration ([CO2]), rapid shifts of climate envelopes are expected to lead to norward migration for boreal tree species. As a ... -
Physiological and morphological responses of mountain maple (acer spicatum l.) seedlings to light under different carbon dioxide concentrations, soil temperature and soil moisture regimes
(2013-02-01)Determining the response of mountain maple (Acer spicatum L.) to increases in light is confounded by interaction with other environmental factors. Rising atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations ([CO2]) and the accompanying ...
