NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • From the world's leading forest ecologist who forever changed how people view trees and their connections to one another and to other living things in the forest—a moving, deeply personal journey of discovery Suzanne Simard is a pioneer on the frontier of plant communication and intelligence; her TED talks have been viewed by more than 10 million people worldwide. In this, her first book, now available in paperback, Simard brings us into her world, the intimate world of the trees, in which she brilliantly illuminates the fascinating and vital truths--that trees are not simply the source of timber or pulp, but are a complicated, interdependent circle of life; that forests are social, cooperative creatures connected through underground networks by which trees communicate their vitality and vulnerabilities with communal lives not that different from our own. Simard writes--in inspiring, illuminating, and accessible ways—how trees, living side by side for hundreds of years, have evolved, how they learn and adapt their behaviors, recognize neighbors, compete and cooperate with one another with sophistication, characteristics ascribed to human intelligence, traits that are the essence of civil societies--and at the center of it all, the Mother Trees: the mysterious, powerful forces that connect and sustain the others that surround them. And Simard writes of her own life, born and raised into a logging world in the rainforests of British Columbia, of her days as a child spent cataloging the trees from the forest and how she came to love and respect them. And as she writes of her scientific quest, she writes of her own journey, making us understand how deeply human scientific inquiry exists beyond data and technology, that it is about understanding who we are and our place in the world.
This handbook contains information on the effects of operational brushing treatments on conifers & plant communities in the Kamloops and Nelson forest regions of British Columbia. Data were collected over a nine-year period from 96 individual PROBE (PRotocol for Operational Brushing Evaluations) trials. The first three sections present an introduction to the PROBE program, its objectives, and the research methodology. Sections 4 to 11 contain detailed analyses for eight vegetation complexes (fireweed, fern, mixed shrub, ericaceous shrub & subalpine herb, dry alder, wet alder, aspen, and mixed broadleaf/shrub complex). Each of these sections contains an abstract, an introduction, site descriptions, results, discussion, conclusions, and management implications. The final section is an overall summary and management recommendation. Appendices include information about the willow and pinegrass complexes, a summary of results for unreplicated treatments involving those communities, and summary tables of information about PROBE sites that presently represent unreplicated treatment cells.
A series of research trials established in 1986-87 in the Kamloops Forest Region, British Columbia, studied the effectiveness of chemical and manual treatment methods for controlling competing vegetation, and also studied the impact that these brushing methods had on the range resource in the region. This report first describes the study methodology, including site selection, experimental design, measurements made, and statistical analyses. It then reports the results of the three studies in the series: the effects of brushing and grazing on lodgepole pine, the dry alder plant community, and range forage at the Devick Lake site; effects of brushing and grazing on lodgepole pine, the willow plant community, and range forage at the Ellis Creek site; and effects of brushing on lodgepole pine, the pinegrass plant community, and range forage at the Upper McKay Creek site.
Information on the ecology and management of paper birch, which occurs in virtually all the Province east of the Coast Mountains, and Alaska paper birch, found the northeastern part of the Province east of the continental divide. Differing silvicultural practices for biogeoclimatic subzones are discussed.
