Book Description
This project was aimed primarily at technology tranfer, demonstrating the integration of silvicultural and harvesting techniques for protecting spruce understories in mixedwoods. This report provides details of the silvicultural component. It stresses post-harvest implications, particularly blowdown risk and growth and yield potential of released understory, and regeneration and growth of spruce, aspen, and poplar on mechanically harvested mixedwood sites. The project addresses concerns about maintaining the coniferous component of mixedwood forests and finding alternatives to clearcutting. It covers the current status of operational understory protection and some related aspects of integrated resource management.

Book Description
This volume presents papers given at a workshop held to review current knowledge of the silviculture of temperate and boreal broadleaf-conifer mixtures and the consequences of growing mixed stands. Topics of the papers include the importance of mixedwood stands, managing birch-dominated mixed stands, competition dynamics, silvicultural systems, stand dynamics, vegetation management, red alder-conifer stands, mixedwood management research, white spruce and aspen stands, vertical stratification in mixed-species stands, habitat management for game and parasite control, simulation of long-term impacts of alder/fir mixtures, understory protection, fertilisation, control of spruce weevils, and litter decomposition.
