Effects of manual brushing on 10-year survival and growth of Douglas-fir in the mixed broadleaf – shrub complex of southern interior British Columbia

Manual brushing is used to minimize the competitive effects of paper birch (Betula papyrifera Marsh) and associated broadleaved trees on young Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. glauca) in southern interior British Columbia. Effects of brushing broadleaved trees, predominantly birch, on interio...
