This digital document is a scanned PDF of a Prince George Forest Region Forest Research Note #PG-12-1: "Experimental Project 660 - 30-year Progress Report - Buckhorn Installation".
File contains the following data sets:
The Archie Creek site is the informal name used for a research installation established in 1971 east of Prince George by the Canadian Forest Service, and subsequently abandoned by the end of that decade. Dr. Paul Sanborn revisited the site in 1995, and sampled forest floors and mineral soils across a range of conifer-broadleaf mixtures established by natural establishment of broadleaf trees among planted lodgepole pines.
Details of the site conditions, sampling methods, and results were published in:
Sanborn, P. 2001. Influence of broadleaf trees on soil chemical properties: A retrospective study in the Sub-Boreal Spruce Zone, British Columbia, Canada. Plant and Soil 236: 75–82. https://doi.org/10.1023/A:1011973402414
This document is an unpublished 1995 UNBC co-op work term report by B. Roosdahl entitled "Forest Floor Development on Bladed Trails in the SBS: A retrospective study of the Archie Creek site". B. Roosdahl was a co-op student who was one of the student research assistants involved in the field work at the Archie Creek site in fall 1995.
This document is a photocopy of a 1994 draft report prepared by Scagel, Hickling, and Evans for BC Ministry of Forests, Silviculture Branch. The document includes annotations by Lorne Bedford, BC MoF (ret.).
File contains the following data sets:
This document contains location and vegetation notes for 5 observation sites for Sanborn's comparative study of grassland soils in the Boreal Cordillera ecozone.
