Carbon Stocks and Fluxes From a Boreal Conifer Swamp: Filling a Knowledge Gap for Understanding the Boreal C Cycle
Resource
The carbon (C) dynamics of boreal coniferous swamps are a largely understudied component of wetland carbon cycling. We investigated the above- and below-ground carbon stocks and growing season carbon...
Ecohydrological Interactions in a Boreal Fen–swamp Complex, Alberta, Canada
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...
Policy Mechanisms to Regulate Seismic Line Restoration at Scale
Resource
Presentation from the Seismic Line Restoration Technical Session Edmonton, AB December 1 st , 2016 Organized by the Canadian Institute of Forestry This technical session will facilitate discussion and...
Prompt Rewetting of Drained Peatlands Reduces Climate Warming Despite Methane Emissions
Resource
Peatlands are strategic areas for climate change mitigation because of their matchless carbon stocks. Drained peatlands release this carbon to the atmosphere as carbon dioxide (CO2). Peatland...
Response of CO2 and CH4 Emissions from Arctic Tundra Soils to a Fultifactorial Manipulation of Water Table, Temperature, and Thaw Depth
Resource
Significant uncertainties persist concerning how Arctic soil tundra carbon emission responds to environmental changes. In this study, 24 cores were sampled from drier (high centre polygons and rims)...
Status of Boreal Woodland Caribou Conservation in Canada
Resource
Several key gaps exist in current reporting and information synthesis practices with respect to boreal caribou conservation in Canada. Conservation data are collected at a provincial/territorial level...
The Potential of Peatlands as Nature-based Climate Solutions
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 Unrecognized Importance of Carbon Stocks and Fluxes from Swamps in Canada and the USA
Resource
Swamps are a highly significant wetland type in North America both in terms of areal extent and their role in terrestrial carbon cycling. These wetlands, characterized by woody vegetation cover...
Video - Is the Alberta Climate Change Leadership Plan a Game Changer?
Resource
This presentation reviews the Alberta Climate Leadership Plan, what it means for Alberta's international reputation, Canada's Greenhouse Gas policies, and resource development challenges.
Video - Is the Alberta Climate Change Leadership Plan a Game Changer?
Resource
Ed Whittingham, Executive Director, Pembina Institute reviews the Alberta Climate Leadership Plan and discusses what it means for Alberta's international reputation, Canada's Greenhouse Gas policies...
Video - Pembina Institute Updates Landowner's Guide to Oil & Gas Development
Resource
This talk at the AIA 2016 Conference covered Pembina Institute's update to their guide to landowners who are dealing with the oil and gas industry in Alberta around development and reclamation issues.
Video - Reconciling Water Use in the Oilsands : Challenges and Opportunities
Resource
At the 2012 conference for the Alberta Institute of Agrologists, Jennifer Grant - oilsands program director for the Pembina Institute - gave a presentation on how water is used in the oilsands.
Webinar - No Longer just the Swamp of Sadness: An Insight into the Value of Forested Ecosystems (swamps) as Natural Climate Solutions
Resource
Presented by Dr Scott J Davidson, Lecturer in Ecosystem Resilience, University of Plymouth Swamps are a highly significant wetland type in North America both in terms of areal extent and their role in...
Wildfire and Degradation Accelerate Northern Peatland Carbon Release
Resource
The northern peatland carbon sink plays a vital role in climate regulation; however, the future of the carbon sink is uncertain, in part, due to the changing interactions of peatlands and wildfire...
