Meta-analysis Reveals that Enhanced Practices Accelerate Vegetation Recovery During Peatland Restoration
Resource
Abstract The provision of critical ecosystem services like carbon sequestration by peatlands has been degraded around the globe. Peatland restoration represents an opportunity to tackle the twin...
Mineral Road in Sphagnum Dominated Peatlands: The Burial Under Peat Layer Restoration Method
Resource
This research poster gives examples of peatland restoration using the burial under peat method at two sites in Quebec. Presented at the NAIT 7th Seminar on Linear Disturbance Impacts on Boreal Wetland...
Occupancy and Abundance of Pond-Breeding Anurans in Boreal Landscapes
Resource
As resource extraction moves north across the globe, wetland ecosystems in Canada are increasingly degraded because of disturbances associated with anthropic activities, including timber harvesting...
Peatland Ecology Research Group

Organization:
The Peatland Ecology Research Group (PERG) was formed through the partnership of the university scientific community, the Canadian peat moss industry and federal and provincial agencies. Our common...
Peatland Ecology Research Group 24th Symposium Abstracts
Resource
Schedule and abstracts from the 24th annual Symposium of the Peatland Ecology Research Group.
Post-fire Peatland Vegetation Recovery: A Case Study in Open Rich Fens of the Canadian Boreal Forest
Resource
Fire plays a major role in structuring and the functioning of boreal ecosystems. As peatlands are important components of boreal forests, the impact of fire upon these wetter ecosystems is...
Re-establishment of Peatland Vegetation Following Surface Leveling of Decommissioned In Situ Oil Mining Infrastructures
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...
Restoration of Boreal Peatland Impacted by an In-situ Oil Sands Well-pad 1: Vegetation Response
Resource
The prompt introduction and establishment of peatland donor species through moss layer transfer technique was crucial to the overall re-establishment of peatland vegetation.
Restoring Drained Peatlands: A Necessary Step to Achieve Global Climate Goals
Resource
Peatlands cover about 400 million hectares (ha), or 3% of the land surface of our planet. Yet they store more carbon, more effectively and for longer periods, than any other ecosystem on land. Intact...

Temperature, Moisture and Freeze–thaw Controls on CO2 Production in Soil Incubations From Northern Peatlands
Resource
Peat accumulation in high latitude wetlands represents a natural long-term carbon sink, resulting from the cumulative excess of growing season net ecosystem production over non-growing season (NGS)...

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...
