Increasing Contributions of Peatlands to Boreal Evapotranspiration in a Warming Climate
Resource
The response of evapotranspiration (ET) to warming is of critical importance to the water and carbon cycle of the boreal biome, a mosaic of land cover types dominated by forests and peatlands. The...
Living in a Burned Landscape: Woodland Caribou Use of Postfire Residual Patches for Calving in a High Fire - Low Anthropogenic Boreal Shield Ecozone
Resource
We tested [the potential habitat value of postfire residuals] using 2 years of GPS data obtained from 56 female caribou to identify calving site selection. 79 calving events were identified from...

In boreal forests, wildfire is a dominant ecological process that affects the distribution and abundance of terrestrial lichens, the principal winter food for Woodland Caribou ( Rangifer tarandus...
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...
