Satellite Determination of Peatland Water Table Temporal Dynamics by Localizing Representative Pixels of A SWIR-Based Moisture Index
Resource
The OPtical TRApezoid Model (OPTRAM) is a physically-based approach for remote soil moisture estimation. OPTRAM is based on the response of short-wave infrared (SWIR) reflectance to vegetation water...
Spatial Structure of Reproductive Success Infers Mechanisms of Ungulate Invasion in Nearctic Boreal Landscapes
Resource
Abstract Landscape change is a key driver of biodiversity declines due to habitat loss and fragmentation, but spatially shifting resources can also facilitate range expansion and invasion. Invasive...
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...
The Role of Digital Data Entry in Participatory Environmental Monitoring
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...
The Scale of Effect of Landscape Context Varies with the Species’ Response Variable Measured
Resource
Abstract: Context To detect an effect of landscape context on a species’ response, the landscape variables need to be measured within the appropriate distance from the species’ response, i.e. at the...

"Two-Eyed Seeing": An Indigenous Framework to Transform Fisheries Research and Management
Resource
Increasingly, fisheries researchers and managers seek or are compelled to “bridge” Indigenous knowledge systems with Western scientific approaches to understanding and governing fisheries. Here, we...
Using Stable Isotopes to Track Hydrological Processes at an Oil Sands Mine, Alberta, Canada
Resource
Water samples were collected and analyzed regularly over an eight-year period to establish inventories of site-wide water isotope signatures including seasonal and interannual changes in the recycle...
Variability in Flow and Tracer-based Performance Metric Sensitivities Reveal RFegional Differences in Dominant Hydrological Processes Across the Athabasca River Basin
Resource
This study evaluates whether combined use of streamflow and isotope tracer performance metrics can improve representation of simulated streamflow-generating processes within a large river basin, the...
Video - Reclamation, Restoration & the Emergence of Novel Ecosystems
Resource
This presentation discusses where ecological restoration and land reclamation intersect, the emergence of novel ecosystems and our role in responsible intervention.
Warming Response of Peatland CO2 Sink is Sensitive to Seasonality in Warming Trends

Water and Environmental Management in Oil Sands Regions
Resource
This article introduces scientific contributions to the special issue paper collection focusing on water and environmental management in oil sands regions. New hydrological insights for the region...
Weaving Indigenous Knowledge Systems and Western Sciences in Terrestrial Research, Monitoring and Management in Canada: A Protocol for a Systematic Map
Resource
Human activities and development have contributed to declines in biodiversity across the globe. Understanding and addressing biodiversity loss will require the mobilization of diverse knowledge...

When to Monitor and When to Act: Value of Information Theory for Multiple Management Units and Limited Budgets
Resource
Abstract: The question of when to monitor and when to act is fundamental to applied ecology and notoriously difficult to answer. Value of information (VOI) theory holds great promise to help answer...
Wildlife Usage Indicates Increased Similarity Between Reclaimed Upland Habitat and Mature Boreal Forest in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region of Alberta, Canada
Resource
Degree of similarity suggests that comparable ecological functionality is possible, increasing probability that oil sands operators will fulfill their regulatory requirement reclaim wildlife habitat
