Guide to assist in the recognition of vegetation and soil features of forest ecosystems in north-western Ontario using a classification system that enables the allocation of any forest ecosystem to one of 40 vegetation types and one of 22 soil types. Provides an orientation to the vegetation classification; describes the vegetation types and their determination, including a key and factsheets for classifying stands to vegetation types; provides keys and factsheets for classifying soil types; and gives a brief overview of the relationships among vegetation and soil types in north-western Ontario as well as background information on potential applications of the classification. Also contains aids for describing or recognizing important soil features and many of the plant species used in the allocation keys and factsheets.

This guide provides a framework for classifying wetlands in northwestern Ontario using vegetation and environmental features. The classification is intended to help resource managers make informed decisions about wetland management and conservation. It consists of keys, factsheets, ordinations and environmental data summaries for 36 wetland communities (W-types). The classification is based on the analysis of vegetation, soil and water data from field samples collected in plots in northwestern Ontario wetlands.

Guide to assist in the application of the Northwestern Ontario forest ecosystem classification to forest management in northwestern Ontario. Interpretations relate vegetation, soil, site, and climatic factors to limitations or opportunities for forest management. The guide introduces the concept of forest ecosystem interpretations; presents the concept as a method of applying the classification to site-specific management through a set of generalized treatment units that may be further adapted to accommodate local variations in site or climate; describes some basic silvicultural interpretations, followed by interpretations for wildlife; and deals with incorporation of the system into operational forestry surveys.

This guide focuses on 152 of the most common forest plants found in north-western Ontario, organized into six main categories according to common growth form or habit: trees, shrubs, herbs, graminoids, ferns and fern-allies, and bryophytes and lichens. Provides line drawings to aid in identification; descriptions of general appearance, leaves, flowers, fruit, and habitat; and notes regarding such matters as differences with similar species and traditional uses of the plants, as applicable. An additional 61 species are noted briefly. Includes glossary and index.

Ecological Land Classification (ELC) refers to the description of land resources at a range of spatial resolutions (i.e. global to local) and for a range of purposes or values. The emerging science of ELC is in fact a very carefully integrated blend of vegetation and earth sciences, climatology, cartography and ecology with a range of new technologies and methodologies including computer-based geographic information systems, remote sensing and simulation modelling. This publication defines the current `state-of-the-art' of ELC. It provides particular insight into the role of ELC in current and future forest resource planning and management, and emphasizes its application and usefulness at various spatial scales, for a variety of geographic locations, and under a range of management scenarios/constraints. The book is an invaluable and substantial reference source about the current trends in ELC and will be of particular value to ecologists, foresters, geographers, resource managers, wildlife biologists, GIS and remote sensing specialists, educators and students.

Forested wetlands are a major component of northern landscapes, important both for their ecological functions and their socioeconomic values. Historically, these lands have been used for timber and fiber products, hunting, fishing, trapping, food gathering, and recreation. There are many questions about the use and management of these lands in the future, particularly with respect to forest products, hydrology and water quality, plant and wildlife ecology, landscape dynamics, and wetland restoration. Northern Forested Wetlands: Ecology and Management provides a synthesis of current research and literature. It examines the status, distribution, and use of these wetland resources. The book focuses on understanding the role of wetlands in the landscape and on how to manage these wetlands and sustain their important functions. This is a primary reference text for the study and management of northern forested wetlands, providing a forum for information discovered by researchers and managers from many nations.
