Kalmia angustifolia is a boreal ericaceous shrub that can rapidly spread on black spruce forest cutovers in eastern Canada, where CPRS (i.e. Cutting with Protection of Regeneration and Soils") is practiced. The proliferation of Kalmia often coincides

Wildfires are a major driver of carbon stocks and ecosystem development in Canadian boreal forests, but there is little information on amounts and properties of the charcoal produced. Using data and samples available from a previous study, we determi

Environmental stresses not only influence production of plant metabolites but could also modify their resorption during leaf senescence. The production-resorption dynamics of polyphenolic tannins, a class of defense compound whose ecological role ext

The development of high-field superconducting magnets and of Fourier transform techniques has made possible the application of solution Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to humic materials from soils, composts, aquatic environments, sediments and coal

We measured changes in mass and in carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) concentrations and content of surface-placed and buried wood blocks decomposing over 12 years at 21 sites across Canada to evaluate the influence of the environment on C,

Proximate analysis (PA) is widely used to assess foliar, litter, and wood quality. The acid-unhydrolyzable residue (AUR) of PA, originally known as Klason lignin from wood analysis, is often assumed to be entirely lignin-derived, but the AUR of much

Factors regulating the persistence of lignin in terrestrial ecosystems are highly debated, and recently lignin has been proposed to have a low residence time in soils. The catalytic efficiency and activation energy of the oxidoreductase enzymes regul

Wildfires release substantial quantities of carbon (C) into the atmosphere but they also convert part of the burnt biomass into pyrogenic organic matter (PyOM). This is richer in C and, overall, more resistant to environmental degradation than the or
