A team from the ABMI’s Caribou Monitoring Unit, studied links between habitat alteration (e.g., forest harvesting), primary productivity, moose, wolves, and caribou across the Canadian boreal forest

Conservation actions directed at the proximate cause of caribou decline have been more successful in the near term than those directed further along the trophic chain.

Peatlands store large amounts of terrestrial carbon and any changes to their carbon balance could cause large changes in the greenhouse gas (GHG) balance of the Earth's atmosphere. There is still much...

This study tested the ability of rat root to grow in a high pH/high salinity environment, similar to that of a constructed oil sands tailings pond wetland.

A Riparian Classification and Reclamation Guide (‘Riparian Guide’) was recently produced to direct the re-establishment of riparian ecosystems in areas disturbed by oil sands mining in Alberta, Canada

Outcome-based criteria encourage innovations in reclamation techniques, provide a higher level of credibility credibility for decision makers, and increase certainty for the operator

CEMA, a multi-stakeholder organisation advising the provincial and federal governments, is committed to respectful, inclusive dialogue to make recommendations for cumulative effects management

Subject matter experts were asked to participate in a multi-year process to review, interpret and synthesise results on marsh (open water wetland) reclamation and research in the oil sands region

Wetland reclamation trends over time, wetland reclamation research, critical findings and the latest wetland reclamation initiatives, such as fen watershed research, design, construction and monitorin

Mycorrhizal fungi enable plants to thrive in the cold, waterlogged, organic soils of boreal peatlands and, with saprotrophic fungi, largely contribute to the sequestration of atmospheric carbon in...
