Book excerpt: Forest managers in New Brunswick have shown a renewed interest in the management of natural conifer regeneration. One requirement in the management of natural balsam fir and spruce regeneration is an assessment method to determine the acceptability of such seedlings. This paper documents the experimental design, methodology, and establishment of a 5-year study whose objective is to relate damage characteristics of natural advance balsam fir and spruce regeneration to survival and growth in recent cutovers in northeastern New Brunswick. The purpose of this study is to develop a decision key for the assessment of balsam fir and spruce natural regeneration for survival, growth, and crop tree potential in routine surveys done on recent cultures.
