Description:
In northern British Columbia we face many natural resource management challenges, especially in the wake of the mountain pine beetle. But we also recognize that a lot of work has gone into addressing these challenges and it is important to ensure that this information is made available and discussed. This series of talks will focus on sharing the latest developments in forest productivity research on northern British Columbia’s ecosystems and how climate change may affect that productivity. It will include northern forest growth and yield research and model development as well as research on forest health impacts and changes due to a shifting climate.
