Status of British Columbia Long-Term Silvicultural Systems Research Trial

This document is a detailed inventory of numerous forestry research projects across British Columbia. It systematically catalogues various long-term studies examining different silvicultural systems, which are methods for managing forest growth and harvesting timber. The document is structured geographically, listing trials in the Southern Interior, Northern Interior, and Coast regions, as well as smaller, province-wide trials, university research forests, demonstration areas, and operational case studies. For each listed project, the document typically provides information such as the establishment year, location, ecological zone, tested silvicultural systems (like clearcutting, shelterwood, and group selection), trial objectives (e.g., impacts on regeneration, wildlife, or disease), and often a list of associated publications and contact information, highlighting the extensive research network in the province.
