Global resource development has resulted in numerous disturbances that have a myriad of consequences on peatlands. We examined edge effects from one such linear disturbance, seismic lines, on plant...

The goals of this study were to (1) document spatial and temporal variation in diatom species composition across a gradient of northern peatlands and (2) determine how underlying environmental...

Linear disturbances within boreal Canada (e.g. seismic lines) can significantly disrupt carbon cycling in northern peatlands, potentially transforming these significant carbon stocks from long-term...

Tens of thousands of oil and gas well pads have been constructed in peatlands on the North American Western Boreal Plain. The introduction of true mosses directly onto residual mineral substrates left...

Trails and tracks are the detectable signs of passage of wildlife and off-highway vehicles in natural landscapes. They record valuable information on the presence and movement of animals and humans...
