Leaf and Flower Phenology of Woody Plant Species at Harvard Forest and Southern Quebec 2015
Accurate predictions of spring plant phenology with climate change are critical for projections of growing seasons, plant communities and a number of ecosystem services, including carbon storage. Progress towards prediction, however, has been slow because the major cues known to drive phenology – temperature (including winter chilling and spring forcing) and photoperiod – generally covary in nature and may interact, making accurate predictions of plant responses to climate change complex and nonlinear. Alternatively, recent work suggests many species may be dominated by one cue, which would make predictions much simpler. Here, we manipulated all three cues across 28 woody species from two North American forests. Study sites were Harvard Forest and St. Hipplolyte, Quebec. Species were selected for this study based on their prevalence at the study sites; 28 species are included in this study. At each site, multiple cuttings of six or more representative individuals were collected. In total, we tracked the phenology of 2,137 cuttings from 275 individual source plants. All species responded to all cues examined. Chilling exerted a strong effect, especially on budburst (-15.8 d), with responses to forcing and photoperiod greatest for leafout (-19.1 and -11.2 d, respectively). Interactions between chilling and forcing suggest that each cue may compensate somewhat for the other. Cues varied across species, leading to staggered leafout within each community and supporting the idea that phenology is a critical aspect of species’ temporal niches. Our results suggest that predicting the spring phenology of communities will be difficult, as all species we studied could have complex, nonlinear responses to future warming.
Functional Traits of Selected Tree Species in Harvard Forest, New Hampshire, and Southern Quebec 2015
Increasing evidence suggests that species' phenological responses may predict their performance with warming, but this work has generally ignored whether phenology is correlated with other traits known to drive plant performance. This is perhaps surprising given that interest in functional traits has also increased in recent decades, yet within the functional traits literature there has been an equally limited consideration of phenology, perhaps because robustly estimating it is time-intensive, and simple field estimates will show extreme variation across sites of different latitudes and climate regimes. Here we collected a suite of trait data on the same species for which we collected phenological data (see related dataset HF314, Leaf and Flower Phenology of Woody Plant Species at Harvard Forest and Southern Quebec 2015) to help address this gap. We focused on populations of trees in temperate forests in the Northeast face, which face different environmental conditions across their ranges. This project measured functional traits of trees at two to four sites, to provide a foundation for studies on the relationship between range shift, phenology, and functional traits.
Impact of Snowmelt Timing and Tree Proximity on Dutchman's Breeches Phenology and Performance in Mont Megantic National Park (Quebec, Canada; 2018-2019)
Data herein were collected in 2018 and 2019 in Mont Megantic National Park, Quebec, Canada, in a sugar maple-dominated temperate deciduous forest. Individuals of Dutchman's breeches (Dicentra cucullaria), a common understory spring ephemeral plant that is only active in the spring, were transplanted into a fully factorial experiment of snowmelt timing (early vs. late) and tree proximity (near vs. far) to determine the role of thaw circle formation in the local clustering of this species near canopy tree trunks. Plant phenology (emergence, senescence, and growing season length) and performance (stem abundance and leaf area) were tracked during two years of snow manipulation. Additionally, microclimate temperature data were collected in a subset of plots in 2018.
Life cycle inventory database for consumption in Quebec - Personal hygiene
<p>These inventory datasets are essential for calculating the environmental impacts of an individual’s consumption in Quebec.</p> <p>Led by the CIRAIG, in collaboration with ESG-UQAM, this project aims to develop an inventory database of the life cycle of consumption in Quebec. These inventory datasets are essential for calculating the carbon footprint of an individual’s consumption in Quebec. The inventory is developed with a life cycle approach. Ultimately, it allows for evaluating carbon footprints at every step of the consumption life cycle (extraction of primary sources, transformation, transport, use of goods and services, end of life). The inventory is developed in a modular fashion for the different areas of individual consumption as Food; Transport; Housing; Clothing; Travel; Communications; Entertainment and Culture; Financial and Administrative Management; Health, Hygiene, and Beauty. These areas are developed and detailed as a priority, as they contribute most to an individual’s carbon footprint in Quebec. Other non-priority areas are roughly modelled in order to provide a complete (but more uncertain) portrait of individual consumption. The project is underway and the deliverables will be made available online as things progress. It is not, however, an objective of the project to create a carbon footprint calculation tool at the moment.</p> <p>https://ciraig.org/index.php/project/life-cycle-inventory-database-for-consumption-in-quebec/ </p>

Fig. 2. A) Parasite genus richness in foxes (Vulpes vulpes, blue), coyotes (Canis latrans, orange), and wolves (Canis lupus, gray) from Qu´ebec, Canada, determined by gross examination and fecal flotation combined (N = 250). Fewer foxes were uninfected than coyotes (p = 0.006). More foxes were infected by two parasite genera than coyotes (p = 0.004). B) Parasite genus richness between Subarctic (yellow) and Humid Continental climate (green) in foxes from Qu´ebec, Canada, determined by gross examination and fecal flotation combined (N = 155). No significant difference in parasite genera was seen in foxes between Subarctic and Humid Continental climate regions. Parasites counted in both histograms were: diphyllobothriids (likely Dibothriocephalus spp.), Echinococcus spp., Taenia spp., Capillaria spp., Toxascaris sp., Toxocara sp., Trichuris sp., Uncinaria sp., Alaria sp., Cryptocotyle sp., and Metorchis sp. Parasites observed in both fecal and gross examination were only counted once. Bars represent 95% confidence intervals.

FIG. 41. — Euphanerops longaevus Woodward, 1900; Escuminac Formation, lower Frasnian (Upper Devonian), Miguasha, Quebec, Canada; two possible interpretations of the digestive tract in the visceral cavity:A, interpretation based on the larval lamprey, hagfish or even gnathostome models, assuming that the entrance to the oesophagus is situated at the posterior end of the branchial apparatus, and that the stomach and posterior intestine form loops inside the abdominal cavity; B, interpretation based on the adult lamprey model, assuming that the oesophagus, stomach and intestine (dark grey) are dorsal to the pharynx (light grey), and that the respiratory water was conveyed to the gill pouches through a median oesophagobranchial duct (black), passing between the right and left series of gill pouches, and numerous individual branchial ducts (white dots). Not to scale.
