Lake chemistry |
ECCC-WSTD |
The thermal structure and
dissolved O2 profile of all 5 lakes and whole-lake,
volume-weighted chemistry samples were collected at the same time. When
a lake was thermally stratified, volume-weighted epilimnion, metalimnion
and hypolimnion samples were collected in addition to the whole-lake
sample. The samples were analyzed for pH, concentrations of major ions
and nutrients, DOC and some metals. Sampling stations are situated at
the deepest point in each lake and range from 4.5 m to 37 m in depth.
Bi-weekly to monthly 1980-2019. |

Aquatic
macroinvertebrates were collected by modified Surber samplers in early
October from 1995 to 2009 (pre- and post-harvest experiment) from
streams draining the selection (C34) and shelter cut (C33) watersheds,
as well as from C42 as a reference stream. In addition, invertebrate
collection and decomposition rates were intermittently collected by
standardized leaf packs between 2000 and 2009. |

Understory woody vegetation harvest impacts study |
NRCAN-CFS |
Understory woody vegetation was measured in approximately 200 5x5 m
quadrats, associated with the harvest impacts study. Plots are located
within different harvest treatment blocks and capture a variety of
post-harvest canopy opening and soil disturbance combinations resulting
from selection, shelterwood, and clearcut harvest operations. Data were
collected in 2000, 2006, 2010, 2014 and 2019 and focused on the density
and size of tree and shrub species > 0.3 m tall. Additional
assessments of the density and size of tree and shrubs > 2
cm DBH were made in 36 adjacent 400 m2 circular plots
in 1999, 2004, 2010 and 2017. |
