Synthesis of current AshNet study designs and methods with recommendations towards a standardized protocol / C.E. Emilson … [et al.].: Fo123-2/22-2018E-PDF

"AshNet is a network of Canadian government, academic, and industry researchers, foresters and policy makers investigating the potential beneficial diversion of wood ash, a by-product of the growing bioenergy industry, from landfills across Canada to forest soils. AshNet currently consists of 14 wood ash application experiments established at sites representing varying forest stand and soil types, tree species, and stand ages. These trials include ash sources with different ash chemistries and application rates. The main objective of this report is to guide future Canadian ash amendment research by (1) synthesizing the current practices and experimental approaches across AshNet studies, and (2) identifying recommendations and considerations towards a standardized protocol and important areas of research"--Abstract, p. 2.
