DOWNLOAD EBOOKA team of scientists was charged with the task of designing and implementing studies to determine the impacts of full-tree harvesting on the long-term site productivity of black spruce and jack pine ecosystems. This report details the protocols required to study the complexities of nutrient cycling, nutrient loss after disturbance, and post-disturbance recovery of the harvested black spruce sites, including experimental design, site selection, harvesting treatments, and sampling procedures.
