HydroGeoSim: A Water Purification Geosimulation Modelling Platform
Resource
The model documentation summarizes the data, variables and assumptions required to capture how water purification services are provided across landscapes in Alberta
Hydrological Functioning of a Constructed Peatland Watershed in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region: Potential Trajectories and Lessons Learned
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...
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...
Indigenizing the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation
Resource
This article identifies the gaps and linkages between the North American Model of wildlife conservation and Indigenous-led conservation efforts across Canada. Although a diversity of approaches to...
Indigenous Fish and Wildlife Co-management as an Opportunity to Support Inuit Well-being
Resource
This dissertation research characterizes how wildlife co-management impacts well-being in Inuit Nunangat. Abstract Inuit in the Circumpolar North are closely tied to the lands, waters, and wildlife...
Indigenous Peoples are Critical to the Success of Nature Based Solutions
Resource
Nature-based solutions (NbS) to climate change mitigation—such as ecosystem protection or conservation, improved forest management practices, as well as afforestation—can significantly reduce global...
Interim Report on Semi-aquatic Mammal Studies 1977-1978
Resource
Live trapping and tagging of the four study species, beaver (Castor canadensis), muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus), mink (Mustela vison), and otter (Lutra canadensis), were conducted while the study areas
Investigating Flexible Migration in Hudson Bay Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou)
Resource
A masters thesis that identified environmental drivers of caribou migration in Ontario, and evaluated whether caribou exhibited a migratory syndrome. Abstract Facultative migration has been...
Investigation of Microbial Community Response During Oil Sands Reclamation via Lipid and Carbon Isotope Analyses
Resource
In this study, phospholipid fatty acids (PLFA) and carbon isotopes were used to characterize the response of in situ microbial communities to a pilot-scale wetland reclamation project in the Alberta...

Large Scale Mapping of Soil Organic Carbon Concentration with 3D Machine Learning and Satellite Observations
Resource
Canada has extensive forests and peatlands that play key roles in global carbon cycle. Canadian soils and peatlands are assumed to store approximately 20% of the world’s soil carbon stock. However...
Large Stocks of Peatland Carbon and Nitrogen are Vulnerable to Permafrost Thaw
Resource
Northern peatlands have accumulated large stocks of organic carbon (C) and nitrogen (N), but their spatial distribution and vulnerability to climate warming remain uncertain. Here, we used machine...
Learning Across Indigenous and Western Knowledge Systems and Intersectionality: Reconciling Social Science Research Approaches
Resource
Pressing socioeconomic, political, and ecological challenges demand new approaches to creating and acting on research. Finding new approaches to knowledge creation requires turning to previously...
Lichens: A Limit to Peat Growth?
Resource
The fruticose lichens Cladina stellaris and Cladina rangiferina, form thick mats that can cover large areas of northern peatlands (above c. 50° latitude), including the extensive peatlands of the...
Linking Co-monitoring to Co-management: Bringing Together Local, Traditional, and Scientific Knowledge in a Wildlife Status Assessment Framework
Resource
Effective wildlife management requires accurate and timely information on conservation status and trends, and knowledge of the factors driving population change. Reliable monitoring of wildlife...
