The silvics section describes morphological and reproduction characteristics, tolerance, damaging agents, growth development patterns, and genetics and summarizes several studies investigating redcedar stem form and root characteristics. The ecology section describes climatic amplitude of redcedar, its occurrence within biogeoclimatic units, edaphic amplitude, and associated tree species. The silviculture section includes management- related topics such as growth and yield, regeneration strategies, and intensive silviculture options.--Document.
