Northern peatlands are significant contributors to global biogeochemical cycles. In Canada alone, peatlands cover over a tenth of the land surface and store over half of the country’s terrestrial...
Resource
In the startling collapse of the once massive George River Caribou Herd - and a subsequent total hunting ban - Inuit in Labrador, Canada, were abruptly confronted with a new reality: life without a...

Boreal woodland caribou are listed as threatened in Ontario. This thesis examined whether the genetic diversity of boreal woodland caribou in the Brightsand Range differs comparing populations in...
Resource
This thesis explores how seismic line mounding treatments affect vegetation cover and composition, above- and belowground biomass, and carbon dioxide (CO 2) and methane (CH 4) fluxes in the first two...
Resource
Mountain valley bottom peatlands are poorly studied systems, particularly in Alberta, Canada, where the provincial inventory has neither mapped nor characterized them. Nonetheless, these ecosystems...
