FORMATION
- Postdoctorat en Écophysiologie forestière, 1999 (Centre de foresterie des Laurentides)
- Ph.D. en Foresterie, 1997 (Université Laval)
- B.Sc. en Agronomie, 1989 (Faculté Universitaire des Sciences Agronomiques de Gembloux, Belgique)
THÈMES DE RECHERCHE
Mes activités de recherche se centrent sur la planification stratégique des activités en forêt et visent à y intégrer des notions issues de l’écologie fonctionnelle (compréhension des processus). L’élaboration de stratégies d’aménagement requiert également des sauts d’échelle spatio-temporels qui impliquent la prise en compte du risque (le futur est incertain), de la variabilité (notre connaissance du territoire est partielle) et de l’ignorance (nos modèles n’arrivent pas à tout maîtriser).
RÉALISATIONS RÉCENTES
La productivité forestière est corrélée avec des variables de portée régionale ou continentale comme le climat, mais aussi avec des variables locales qui changent spatialement, ce qui affecte la sensibilité de la productivité des forêts au climat. Le régime de perturbation en place et la succession secondaire qui s’en suit ont également un impact très important sur la productivité. La productivité forestière explique en partie la localisation de la limite nordique des forêts commerciales au Québec. Cette variabilité spatio-temporelle de la productivité peut avoir un effet important sur le niveau de récolte de bois en forêt, surtout lorsque la forêt aménagée est vulnérable aux perturbations (faible productivité, problèmes de régénération).
