Journal ArticleDOI
Natural fire regime : a guide for sustainable management of the Canadian boreal forest
TL;DR: The development of strategic-level forest management planning approaches and silvicultural techniques designed to maintain a spectrum of forest compositions and structures at different scales in the landscape is one avenue to maintain natural variability in the boreal forest.
Journal ArticleDOI
Forest management guidelines based on natural disturbance dynamics: Stand- and forest-level considerations
TL;DR: A model that allows an even-aged management approach inspired by natural dynamics is proposed, and silvicultural practices that emulate natural disturbances are proposed with examples from the principal vegetation zones of Quebec.
Journal ArticleDOI
Basing silviculture on natural ecosystem dynamics: an approach applied to the southern boreal mixedwood forest of Quebec
Yves Bergeron,Brian D. Harvey +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a method in which fundamental knowledge of natural ecosystem dynamics of the southern boreal forest may be used as a basis for a new silvicultural approach aimed at maintaining biodiversity and long-term ecosystem productivity under management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stand-landscape integration in natural disturbance-based management of the southern boreal forest
TL;DR: In this article, the concept of cohorts is used to integrate stand age, composition and structure into broad successional or stand development phases, and forest composition and cohort objectives are derived from regional natural disturbance history, ecosystem classification, stand dynamics and a negative exponential age distribution based on a 140 year fire cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Silvicultural alternatives to conventional even-aged forest management - what limits global adoption?
Klaus J. Puettmann,Scott McG Wilson,Susan C. Baker,Pablo J. Donoso,Lars Drössler,Girma Amente,Brian D. Harvey,Thomas Knoke,Yuanchang Lu,Susanna Nocentini,Francis E. Putz,Toshiya Yoshida,Jürgen Bauhus +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a compilation of the authors' experiences and perspectives from various parts of the world aims to initiate a larger discussion concerning the constraints to and the potential of adopting alternative silvicultural practices.
