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...
Linear Disturbances Shift Boreal Peatland Plant Communities Toward Earlier Peak Greenness
Resource
Vast areas of boreal peatlands are impacted by linear disturbances known as seismic lines. Tree removal and ground disturbance alter vegetation communities and are expected to change ecosystem...
Linking Woodland Caribou Abundance to Forestry Disturbance in Southern British Columbia, Canada
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...
Local Controls on Tree Seedling Growth Following Mounding on Peatland Seismic Lines in Brazeau County and Lac La Biche, Alberta
Resource
Abstract Seismic lines in boreal peatlands are struggling to restore native canopy level vegetation. Mounding is a common restoration method that provides an advantageous growing environment for...
Local Hydroclimatic Influence on Black Spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P.) Anatomical Traits in Two Boreal Fen Peatlands
Resource
As global temperatures increase, ongoing research is essential in understanding the long-term effects of climate change on tree dominated wetlands. Acting as a significant landform in the boreal...
Low Extent but High Impact of Human Land Use on Wetland Flora Across the Boreal Oil Sands Region
Resource
Boreal wetlands are at risk of degradation from anthropogenic activities including oil sands energy extraction. Despite efforts to monitor the impacts of oil sands energy extraction-related activities...
Methane Cycling in Horticultural Extracted, Restored, and Unrestored Peatlands in Central Alberta
Resource
Horticulture peat extraction drastically changes peatland ecosystems and their carbon and greenhouse gas balance. Comprehensive study on the combined response of methane (CH4) cycling (i.e., CH4...
Methane Cycling Microbial Community Characteristics: Comparing Natural, Actively Extracted, Restored and Unrestored Boreal Peatlands
Resource
The microbial community in peat is responsible for organic matter degradation and greenhouse gas emissions, yet its response to peat extraction and peatland restoration remains poorly understood. We...
