The Indigenous Peoples of Ungava self-organized into the Ungava Peninsula Caribou Aboriginal Round Table (“UPCART” or “the Round Table”) in early 2013. For the first time in human history the Peoples...
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...
Early Successional Wildlife Monitoring on Reclamation Plots in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region
Resource
Pilot study to assess the use of early successional stands (i.e. those ranging in age from 4 to 17 years) by wildlife (songbirds, small mammals, and ungulates), using a wildlife monitoring protocol
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...
Reclamation Monitoring in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region of Canada Using a Long-term Plot Network
Resource
A long-term plot network would allow the monitoring data to describe the ecological condition of the reclaimed lands and define appropriate management strategies for achieving revegetation goals
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...
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
