About the Montmorency Forest

The Faculty of Forestry and Geomatics is the largest in Canada, with research centres and networks covering many fields, from knowledge of the land and the social aspects of land use to the use of its resources (wood, non-wood, wildlife, etc.). Its many research groups include the Forest Biology Research Centre, the Wood Research Centre, the Hydrometeorology and Precision Agriculture Research Centre, the Network of Excellence in Geomatics (GEOIDE), the Carbon Flux Network (Fluxnet), and the Intensive Silviculture Network.

The Faculty also boasts its own 6,600 hectare teaching and research forest: Montmorency Forest. A vast open-air lab for professors and students, it also serves as a meteorological station.
