AI Contract Overview
This contract involves a collaborative research project with Aleza Lake Research Forest focused on simulating drought resilience at the stand level by applying different silviculture treatments and incorporating climate change scenarios. The project will utilize the Forest Vegetation Simulator – BC variant (FVS-BC) alongside the ministry's Forest Drought Risk Assessment Tool (ForDRAT) to model the impact of various management approaches, such as thinning and species selection, on forest drought tolerance. Funding, subject to approval, is intended to support the salary of a University of Northern British Columbia post-doctoral researcher who will lead the technical work. The study aims to assess how different treatments influence current and future drought resilience in specific forest areas, starting with data from existing stands at Aleza Lake Research Forest. If the initial modeling proves successful, the scope may expand to include permanent sample plots within the Prince George Timber Supply Area, potentially broadening to examine additional climate change-related forest health stressors like wildfires, pests, and diseases. The contract is managed by the Ministry of Forests under the Government of Canada, with a response deadline set for late January 2026, and the contracting authority designated as Heidi Boomhower.
