Canada's timber supply : current status and future prospects under a changing climate / Dan McKenney ... [et al.].: Fo123-2/15-2016E-PDF
"This report contains an update of certain sections of the 1991 Forestry Canada Information Report Canada’s Timber Supply: Current Status and Outlook and preliminary results of a computer-based national timber supply study examining potential impacts of climate change. We first review historical harvests and allowable cut levels, place Canada’s forests in an international context, and briefly review global timber market studies that examine the implications of a changing climate. Many of those studies find that consumers may gain and producers may lose under a changing climate, but this is often predicated on sweeping assumptions about positive forest growth responses and little or no changes in disturbance regimes such as wildfire return intervals"--Summary.
