Acceptable salinity, sodicity and pH values for boreal forest reclamation

Description

This report examines plant species used in reclamation and their tolerances for soil salinity, sodicity and pH. The information for each species was obtained from a review of the literature and unpublished information conveyed through personal interviews with people conducting research in this area or working in reclamation. The objective of this report is to determine if the current values for soil salinity, sodicity and pH need to be revised to reflect plant species' tolerances for these soil parameters. The results indicate that the current values used for soil salinity, sodicity and pH should not be changed at this time.
