Documenting Fire History in a British Columbia Ecological Reserve Don Gayton, FORREX Abstract Ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) ecosystems in British Columbia have high concentrations of biodiversity and species at risk, and numerous studies suggest frequent, low-in- tensity fire was a historical disturbance pattern in this ecosystem type. Fire history was analyzed in the Trout Creek

Bowen Island Ecological Reserve #48 Resource Inventory Data Report Submitted to: Tom Eng, Research and Planning Technician BC Parks Dr. Don Guthrie Project Supervisor Submitted by: Leslie Broscomb Corinne Johnstone Jane Wood May 1997 SUMMARY Ecological reserves are areas of land that have been protected from the consumptive resource use
SUMMARY Ecological reserves are areas of land that have been protected from the consumptive resource use under the Ecological Reserves Act. The Bowen Island Ecological Reserve was established in May 1973 to preserve dry subzone forest ecosystems in the Coastal Western Hemlock Zone at a location convenient for research. The purpose of this study was
In this UBC forestry document , we have extracted the Ecological reserves from the list of Protected Forest Areas in BC .

Ranking is based on
This report is by Pam Wright ( UNBC) and Tory Stevens( BC PARKS): Ecological change results from a combination of natural and anthropogenic causes Ecological change is accelerating from all causes Major causes of change are climate change and habitat loss Result: global losses of biodiversity See the full PDF on this report at: wright_and_stevens
Abstract: Global climate changes are affecting the entire landscape and although intended as eco- logical reservoirs and refugia, parks and protected areas are not immune to these changes. Provincially, BC Parks’ staff evaluate stressors and threats in conservation risk assessments and have identified myriad challenges amplified by climate change. The role of monitoring in the

Abstract: Sponges, bivalves, and tunicates play an important role in the trophic dynamics of many benthic communities. However, direct in situ measurements of their diet composition, filtration, and excretion rates are lacking for most species, and knowledge of these rates is based mostly on indirect, in vitro measurements. This paper presents and evaluates an in
