Ecology

Site Units of the University of British Columbia Alex Fraser Research Forest - In 2002 Dr. Karel Klinka and team identified and reliably mapped detailed ecosystems on the forest. New site series were identified and advanced site series identification tools were developed. A "virtual forest" on CD-ROM links photos of forest communities and the map using a GIS viewer, and included a series of interpretive maps addressing old growth stands, stand nutrient status and productivity. The easy-to-read and photo-rich report is downloadable here. Low resolution version for web viewing (13 MB) OR high resolution version for printing (32 MB)
