A Three-Pronged Approach that Leans on Indigenous Knowledge for Northern Fish Monitoring and Conservation
Resource
Investigating whether changes within fish populations may result from harvesting requires a comprehensive approach, especially in more data-sparse northern regions. Our study took a three-pronged...
Alberta’s Caribou: A Guide to Range Planning Vol. 1: Northeast Alberta
Resource
This document is a ground-level look at boreal woodland caribou in northeastern Alberta: their status, their habitat, the pressures they face, and what is needed for their recovery in this province...
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...
Can Plant or Lichen Natural Abundance 15N Ratios Indicate the Influence of Oil Sands N Emissions on Bogs?
Resource
The 140,329 km 2 Athabasca Oil Sands Administrative Area (OSAA), which contains 8982 km 2 of bogs. Since the late 1970s, N emissions from oil sands development in the OSAA have steadily increased...

Project
Contact
Organization:
Project Description:The Pasquia-Bog area was assessed by reviewing best available caribou Indigenous Knowledge and western science information to characterize the caribou range and draft an...
Influence of Operational Sex Ratio and Male Age on Mating Competition Intensity in Reindeer (Rangifer tarandus)
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...
'Mothers of the Mountains' - Film Screening
Event
Organization
Join CPAWS Northern Alberta for a screening of the film "Mothers of the Mountains" with artist Caitlin Bodewitz. The film illustrates the integration of traditional knowledge with western science to...
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...
Protected Areas as a Nature-Based Climate Solution
Resource
Canada can leverage nature as an important tool towards reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by increasing the protection of key ecosystems, such as: northern peatland complexes in the Hudson...
The Essential Carbon Service Provided by Northern Peatlands
Resource
Northern peatlands have cooled the global climate by accumulating large quantities of soil carbon (C) over thousands of years. Maintaining the C sink function of these peatlands and their immense long...
The Influence of Operational Sex Ratio on the Intensity of Competition in Reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) during Rut: An Experimental Approach
Resource
We examined how manipulating operational sex ratio (OSR: the ratio of reproductively active males to fertilizable females), could affect the intensity of competition in reindeer ( Rangifer tarandus)...
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...
