An introduction to forest health
The item is a video copy of an industrial film about forest health.
Item consists of a training video which provides an overview of cone collection methods. The video details the natural circumstances, such as species characteristics, stand conditions, and crop abundance, that may affect cone collection. The video discusses four collection methods used in British Columbia to collect cones from trees: climbing, felling, aerial raking, and aerial clipping.
Cone collection pre-organization
Item consists of a training video about organizing a cone collection project.
Item consists of a training video about forecasting for conifer seed collection. The video discusses the wide variety in seed-cone harvests from year to year and emphasizes the need to predict the size of a harvest. The presentation shows how to harvest and analyze the winter buds, and how to judge the effects of early summer weather and nutrition on the tree.
Item consists of a training video on cone crop surveys. The purpose of these surveys is to identify good cone crops for the year's collection program and to provide data over time of cone crop periodicity within a particular stand. The video discusses how to plan a cone harvest and explains the equipment and methods to be used when judging whether a harvest will be feasible.
Item consists of a training video about cone handling and storage, following the collection of cones and extraction of seed from the cones.
Development of sustained yield in British Columbia forests
Item consists of an instructional video which traces the history of forestry from its days as a clearing operation, through its heyday as an industry with "unlimited" resources, to its present form of a highly-developed management science.
The item is a video copy of an industrial film.
Item consists of a documentary video about dwarf mistletoe, a parasite that chiefly affects larch, lodgepole pine, douglas fir, and hemlock. The video discusses how dwarf mistletoe affects living trees and control mechanisms in order to reduce its spread.
Forest pesticide use in British Columbia : no. 1 : pesticide control and regulations
Item consists of an instructional video that examines the federal registration, the provincial permit system, and the Ministry of Forests policy on the use of pesticides.
Forest renewal : the silviculture program
Item consists of an instructional and promotional video on the topic of the role of the Silviculture Branch in reforestation and intensive forest management as B.C.'s forests require rebuilding after logging or destruction by wildfire, insects and disease.
Item consists of an industrial video on laminated root rot, which affects Douglas fir in coastal and southern interior forests in British Columbia.
Lodgepole pine dwarf mistletoe
Item consists of an industrial video created to help forest workers detect and identify tree diseases in British Columbia and is part of a larger series on the subject. The video specifically covers the disease of dwarf mistletoe, a parasitic plant, on lodgepole pines and methods to control the parasite.
The item is a video copy of an industrial film.
Planting quality : inspections
Item consists of a training video showing the methods used in planting quality inspection. All aspects of plot installation and evaluation are covered.
Prescribed fire -- video feature
The item is a video copy of a Canada News-Wire Radio/Television Services video feature on prescribed fires.
Productivity : the key to forest management
Item consists of a training video on the subject of a forest management study concerning the future of second growth stands.
Reforestation in British Columbia : a growing success
The item is a video copy of a promotional film about reforestation.
Item consists of a training video which provides a brief background on the biology of the seed cone, which may be useful to students as well as technical personnel. The video also shows how to select, harvest and evaluate samples.
