Biogeochemical Response to Vegetation and Hydrologic Change in an Alaskan Boreal Fen Ecosystem
Resource
Boreal peatlands store approximately one third of the earth’s terrestrial carbon, locked away in currently waterlogged and frozen conditions. Peatlands of boreal and arctic ecosystems are affected...
Effects of Ungulate Density and Sociality on Landscape Heterogeneity: A Mechanistic Modeling Approach
Resource
Animals can be important vectors of nutrient transfer within and across landscapes, with important implications for ecosystem productivity and composition. While it is presumed large ungulates are...
Examining the Role of Terrestrial Lichen Transplants in Restoring Woodland Caribou Winter Habitat
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...
Integrating Coastal Vulnerability and Community-Based Subsistence Resource Mapping in Northwest Alaska
Project
Organization:
This project integrates physical, anthropological, and survey data to assess coastal vulnerability and to identify areas of concern for local and regional planning and environmental protection. This...

Peat Loss Collocates with a Threshold in Plant–Mycorrhizal Associations in Drained Peatlands Encroached by Trees
Resource
Drainage-induced encroachment by trees may have major effects on the carbon balance of northern peatlands, and responses of microbial communities are likely to play a central mechanistic role. We...
The Third Generation of Pan-Canadian Wetland Map at 10 m Resolution Using Multisource Earth Observation Data on Cloud Computing Platform
Resource
Development of the Canadian Wetland Inventory Map (CWIM) has thus far proceeded over two generations, reporting the extent and location of bog, fen, swamp, marsh, and water wetlands across the country...
Transplanting lichen to grow food for threatened caribou
News
Researchers are exploring the transplanting of lichen as a potential tool for caribou habitat restoration. Natural disturbance, resource development, and land-use changes have resulted in a reduced...
Video - The Chase Caribou Road Restoration Program
Resource
Caribou face enormous pressures from predators due to habitat alteration. We can reduce that pressure by implementing restoration measures to roads and other habitat features. Chu Cho Environmental...
What do Caribou Eat? A Review of the Literature on Caribou Diet
Resource
Historically the study of diet caribou and reindeer (Rangifer tarandus (Gmelin, 1788)) has been specific to herds and few comprehensive circumpolar analyses of Rangifer diet exist. As a result, the...
