Thesis (M.S.)--Northern Illinois University, 2009.

As climate changes, the persistence and successful migration of sugar maple (Acer saccharum) at its northern range will become increasingly significant. Therefore, this study addressed two main questions: (1) whether sugar maple germination, and subsequent growth and mortality rates, showed evidence of geographic variations in response to current climatic conditions and (2) how temperatures within and above its optimal germination temperature range affected sugar maple germination. In the end, prospects for sugar maple at its northern limit is questionable given that the northern seeds' initial establishment was significantly reduced and the subsequent seedling mortality rates were significantly increased in the slightly warmer central habitat. Lab results show that the optimal germination temperature of sugar maple may be higher than formerly thought. Ultimately, this study further enhances the understanding of how predicted anthropogenic climate change may affect the regeneration viability of sugar maple in the future.
