Indicator Plant Species In Canadian Forests written by Gordon S. Ringius and has been published by UBC Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1997 with Nature categories.

Plant species that convey information about the ecological nature of a site are known as indicator species. A wide variety of site conditions including soil nutrient and moisture regimes, forest humus types, soil reaction, and general soil type can be determined from the presence of plant species.This field guide is an introduction to the concept of plants as indicators of environmental conditions within Canada's forests. It provides information on the identification, ecology, geographic range, and indicator value of 80 selected vascular plants, mosses, and lichens. Indicator Plant Species in Canadian Forests will be of interest to resource planners, foresters, ecologists, botanists, naturalists, and anyone who wishes to know more about forest plants and what they tell us about the sites they occupy.

This original work makes unprecedented use of some of the most important research to date in plant ecology. It is a guide for assessing site quality, that is, the climate and soil of particular forest and non-forest ecosystems. Foresters have long been interested in using plants as indicators in predicting the growth performance of reforestation sites, but the data have not been readily available. Indicator Plants of Coastal British Columbia fully discusses how indicator plants are recognized and demonstrates how indicator plants can be used in site diagnosis. The book presents colour illustrations and descriptions of 419 selected vascular plants, bryophytes and lichens of coastal British Columbia. Indicators with similar values are grouped into indicator species groups which are used to evaluate site quality. These data are supplemented by information on geographic distribution, life-form, shade tolerance, and other ecological characteristics of the species. Three methods are given on how to use indicator plants for the purpose of site diagnosis. Indicator Plants of Coastal British Columbia summarizes original research in a format which both students and practitioners will find easy to use.

This guidebook shows how the distribution of common forest plants changes across British Columbia's northern interior landscape due to variations in climate, terrain, and site & soil conditions. The guide contains information on 215 plant species or groups that occur in the major biogeoclimatic zones of the Prince Rupert, Prince George, and northern Cariboo forest regions. The information, arranged first by category of plant (trees; shrubs; dwarf shrubs, herbs, & ferns; grasses & sedges; mosses, liverworts, & lichens) then by scientific name, is in the form of grids that depict the predominant moisture & nutrient regimes where a species will most likely occur in old or mature forests. Also included are notes on indicator values and habitat associations. Includes index of common & scientific names.

This guidebook shows how the distribution of common forest plants changes due to variations in climate, terrain, site, & soil conditions across the northern British Columbia wet-belt & subalpine zones. The guide covers over 120 plant species or species groups that occur in the northern montane spruce and the northern interior cedar-hemlock biogeoclimatic zones. For each species, an outline of species ecological information is presented along with a graph showing the predominant moisture & nutrient regimes where it will most likely occur. The information is arranged by category of plant: trees; shrubs; herbs, ferns, & dwarf shrubs; grasses & sedges; and mosses, liverworts, & lichens.

The guide looks at how plants may be used to 'read the environment', essentially treating them as indicators of the state of the habitat where they are found. It was written with three sets of people in mind: 1. Junior ecological consultants who want to improve their Phase 1 Habitat Surveys with botanical target notes useful in ecological assessment. 2. Students of ecology who need to use plants to interpret the landscape around them and understand habitats in greater detail. 3. Amateur naturalists and walkers who seek to enrich their experience of the countryside through a knowledge of plants. Compiled from a range of published sources and from the author's personal experience, it is intended for use primarily in the lowland English countryside.
