A Strong Mitigation Scenario Maintains Climate Neutrality of Northern Peatlands
Resource
Northern peatlands store 300–600 Pg C, of which approximately half are underlain by permafrost. Climate warming and, in some regions, soil drying from enhanced evaporation are progressively...
Citizen Science Bootcamp: Understanding your Waterways
Event
Organization
Are you concerned about a local lake or river? Do you want to start tracking water health to see how it changes over time? This workshop is for any Nova Scotian looking to monitor the health of their...
Equal Use of Indigenous and Scientific Knowledge in Species Assessments: A Case Study From the Northwest Territories, Canada
Resource
Interest in meaningfully including and applying Indigenous knowledge in species at risk assessment processes is growing, but serious procedural challenges remain to achieving this in international...
Fire Temperatures and Sphagnum Damage during Prescribed Burning on Peatlands
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...
Graminoids Vary in Functional Traits, Carbon Dioxide and Methane Fluxes in a Restored Peatland: Implications for Modeling Carbon Storage
Resource
One metric of peatland restoration success is the re-establishment of a carbon sink, yet considerable uncertainty remains around the timescale of carbon sink trajectories. Conditions post-restoration...
Peatland Pools are Tightly Coupled to the Contemporary Carbon Cycle
Resource
Peatlands are globally important stores of soil carbon (C) formed over millennial timescales but are at risk of destabilization by human and climate disturbance. Pools are ubiquitous features of many...
Recent Climate Change has Driven Divergent Hydrological Shifts in High-latitude Peatlands
Resource
High-latitude peatlands are changing rapidly in response to climate change, including permafrost thaw. Here, we reconstruct hydrological conditions since the seventeenth century using testate amoeba...
The Impacts of Climate and Social Changes on Cloudberry (Bakeapple) Picking: A Case Study from Southeastern Labrador
Resource
Abstract The traditional subsistence activities of Indigenous communities in Canada's subarctic are being affected by the impacts of climate change, compounding the effects of social, economic and...
Wetlands for Wellbeing: Piloting a Nature-Based Health Intervention for the Management of Anxiety and Depression
Resource
Abstract Nature-based health interventions (NBIs) for the treatment of poor mental health are becoming increasingly common, yet evidence to support their effectiveness is lacking. We conduct a pilot...
