1 Global Warming Potential Impact on the Tree species of P.E.I. Department of Environment, Energy and Forestry William M. Glen March 2005
2 Sources Climate Change 2001: The Scientific Basis, Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) (United Nations) Climate Change Impacts and Adaptation, A Canadian Perspective, 2004, Natural Resources Canada Environment Canada weather data for Charlottetown U.S. weather data from the National Climatic Data Center A Climate Change Atlas for 80 Forest Tree Species of the Eastern United States spatial database, U.S. Forest Service Atlas of Relations Between Climatic Parameters and Distributions of Important Trees and Shrubs in North America U.S. Geological Survey
3 Global warming Temperature increase higher winter temperatures (3-5 degrees) higher summer temperatures (2 to 4 degrees) C0 2 doubling potentially increased growth rates More extreme weather events for the Maritimes similar annual precipitation amounts but possibly up to 29% less rainfall in the growing season so more periods of drought

27 Caveat given our assumptions and the inherent limitations of a macro-scale, multiple -species modelling approach, in addition to the intra-model limitations as well as input data errors, we predict that species x will "potentially" disappear from the United States. Remember what we lose, our friendly northerly neighbor, Canada gains!

29 Scenarios
30 Average Scenario
31 What do we do?
32 Approach 1
33 Approach 2 Be Proactive The New Forest Policy should include a section on Climate change Climate change should be considered in all future activities and programs of the Forestry Division and other government agencies dealing with trees In field operations favour the likely winners and keep mixes.
34 Approach 2 short term specifics See what can be learned from tests established over the past 30 years by existing Tree Improvement Programs examine the species grown by the nursery and shift over the next decade or so to species better adapted to the changes as seed sources and other factors allow - establish tests of species that can replace the boreal species we are losing (Carolinian forest species?)
