Permafrost Thaw Causes Large Carbon Loss in Boreal Peatlands While Changes to Peat Quality are Limited
Resource
Rapid, ongoing permafrost thaw of peatlands in the discontinuous permafrost zone is exposing a globally significant store of soil carbon (C) to microbial processes. Mineralization and release of this...

Organization:
How will climate change affect the sustainability of Arctic villages over the next forty years? This question motivated a collaboration of 23 researchers and four Arctic communities (Old Crow, YT...
The Boreal-Arctic Wetland and Lake Dataset
Resource
Here we present the Boreal–Arctic Wetland and Lake Dataset (BAWLD), a land cover dataset based on an expert assessment, extrapolated using random forest modelling from available spatial datasets of...
Webinar - Biodiversity and Ecosystem Functioning of Forested Wetlands across Atlantic Canada
Resource
Forested wetlands are an integral but understudied part of the broad landscape of Atlantic Canada. Our project took a multifaceted approach to increasing knowledge about forested wetlands across the...
Wildfire and Degradation Accelerate Northern Peatland Carbon Release
Resource
The northern peatland carbon sink plays a vital role in climate regulation; however, the future of the carbon sink is uncertain, in part, due to the changing interactions of peatlands and wildfire...
