Description

This document outlines the ground rules which apply to the Slave Lake Region, including areas outlined in Forest Management Agreements 0600043, 9700036, 0200039, 9700033 and 9000028, as well as to Forestry Management Units S10, S16, and SO2. Ground rules are the practices used in planning and conducting timber harvesting operations. They constitute the methods used to implement decisions made in forest management plans and other higher-level plans such as integrated resource plans. Ground rules establish practices that minimize the chance of negative effects from timber harvesting and forest management operations and activities.

Description

This paper describes an attempt to develop correlation prediction equations using data from Alberta species grown in the Alberta environment. It changes the form of the equation used by Lambeth by inputting the age difference between measurement and rotation ages as a predictor variable as opposed to an age ratio that Lambeth uses, which inadvertently equates the latest field measurement to a rotation age measurement. it should be noted that this paper is not intended to increase the size of the age-age correlation compared to what could be obtained by Lambeth. it is only intended to provide an empirical procedure of obtaining a correlation that is biologically meaningful and partly related to the species and trials for which the genetic gain is being sought.

Description

As a part of an integrated provincial forest growth and yield program, this document describes the minimum standards for accepting existing permanent sample plots (PSPs) and measuring new PSPs in Alberta. Variables required to be measured at plot and tree levels are described, along with relevant reporting formats to a proposed centralized provincial database. Priorities for establishing and measuring new PSPs in Alberta where significant data gaps exist are identified. The primary goal of this document is to ensure the quality, usefulness and compatibility of collected PSP datasets from different agencies, for the purpose of modeling the growth and yield of natural and post-harvest stands under existing and emerging conditions in a collaborative, efficient, consistent, compatible and scientifically defensible manner.
