Boreal Wetlands and Waterfowl: A Commitment to Stewardship Activities in Manitoba
Resource
Ducks Unlimited Canada (DUC) initiated the Western Boreal Program in 1997 with an understanding that working with forward thinking forest industry partners was key to advancing wetland conservation in...
Increasing Contributions of Peatlands to Boreal Evapotranspiration in a Warming Climate
Resource
The response of evapotranspiration (ET) to warming is of critical importance to the water and carbon cycle of the boreal biome, a mosaic of land cover types dominated by forests and peatlands. The...
Mechanized Tree Planting in Sweden and Finland: Current State and Key Factors for Future Growth
Resource
In Fennoscandia, mechanized tree planting is time-efficient and produces high-quality regeneration. However, because of low cost-efficiency, the mechanization of Fennoscandian tree planting has been...
Satellite Determination of Peatland Water Table Temporal Dynamics by Localizing Representative Pixels of A SWIR-Based Moisture Index
Resource
The OPtical TRApezoid Model (OPTRAM) is a physically-based approach for remote soil moisture estimation. OPTRAM is based on the response of short-wave infrared (SWIR) reflectance to vegetation water...
The Biophysical Climate Mitigation Potential of Boreal Peatlands During the Growing Season
Resource
Peatlands and forests cover large areas of the boreal biome and are critical for global climate regulation. They also regulate regional climate through heat and water vapour exchange with the...
Video - Incorporation of Wetlands into Forest Management
Resource
The Duck Mountain Provincial Forest in west-central Manitoba is a landbase with a mosaic of uplands and wetlands. The wetlands are both interspersed and interconnected with uplands. Ecosystem Based...
Video - Using Pellet-group Counts to Illustrate Changes in Reindeer Habitat Use in a Managed Boreal Forest
Resource
At the 14th North American Caribou Workshop, held in September 2012, Anna Skarin presented research conducted in northern Sweden on the effects of new infrastructure on semi-domesticated reindeer in the area.
Warming Response of Peatland CO2 Sink is Sensitive to Seasonality in Warming Trends
Resource
This resource is available on an external database and may require a paid subscription to access it. It is included on the CCLM to support our goal of capturing and sharing the breadth of all...
Wellsite Selection by Grizzly Bears Ursus arctos in West-central Alberta
Resource
