Island Lake biomass harvest research and demonstration area : establishment report / by M. Kwiaton ... [et al.].: Fo123-2/11-2014E-PDF

The impact of intensified biomass harvesting on forest sustainability, specifically stand growth, soil productivity and forest biodiversity is of concern to a wide variety of stakeholders. Building on the success of the collaborative Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), Canadian Forest Service (CFS)/Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (OMNRF) Ontario component of the North American Long‐Term Soil Productivity (LTSP) experiment, this report documents the establishment of a new study at the Island Lake Biomass Harvest Research and Demonstration Area near Chapleau, Ontario. The study is a partnership of government (NRCan, CFS, OMNRF), industry (Tembec, Ontario Power Generation), First Nations (Northeast Superior Regional Chiefs’ Forum), and local communities (Northeast Superior Forest Community).
