Key Points

• Jack pine regeneration increased through ground scarification and scattering methods applied on a large scale.
• Regeneration efforts were noted in the Chippewa National Forest, showing positive outcomes for natural reproduction.
• Application of the ground scarification method has enhanced jack pine populations following clear cutting.
• The findings suggest effective reforestation techniques could benefit similar forest management practices.
