 Major achievements
Much expertise has been developed and results published in forest health - entomology and
pathology - as well as in silviculture, ecology and fire management. Driven by Canada’s vast
geography, particular progress has been made with applications of remote sensing and
geographic information systems to forest inventory and management. The results of research
have been applied in the innovative “Model Forests” programme, which includes an
international component developed through partners in other countries (described in Chapter
2).
