This is a chapter from the book, Boreal Forests in the Face of Climate Change: Sustainable Management . Measuring climate change impacts on forest ecosystems can be challenging, as many of these...
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...
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...
Overall, the study established existence of long-term groundwater source areas around the margins of the peatland, as well as contemporary permafrost thaw zones within the McClelland Wetland itself.
Minerogenous peatlands that accumulate deep deposits of organic matter (fens) were an important part of the pre-disturbance landscape across Alberta’s oil sands mining area. Bryophytes occupy 80–100%...
Stone fences and blinds built by prehistoric hunters to gather and ambush elk and bighorn sheep above timberline in the Colorado Front Range are similar in concept and function to structures built by...
