Conceptual Models as Tools for Communication Across Disciplines
Resource
This paper suggests that researchers can improve interdisciplinary science through the use of conceptual models as a communication tool. The authors share lessons from a workshop in which...
Delaying Conservation Actions Matters for Species Vulnerable to Climate Change
Resource
Abstract Climate change vulnerability assessments are commonly used to identify species or populations at risk from global climate change, but few translate impact assessments to climate change...
Intrinsic Traits of Woodland Caribou Rangifer tarandus Calves Depredated by Black Bears Ursus americanus and Coyotes Canis latrans
Resource
Individuals in substandard physical condition are predicted to be more vulnerable to predation. Support for this prediction is inconsistent partly as a result of differences across systems in the life...
Large Animal Models for Chronic Wasting Disease
Resource
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a fatal neurodegenerative prion disease of cervid species including deer, elk, moose and reindeer. The disease has shown both geographic and species expansion since...

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...
Sphagnum Mosses, the Impact of Disturbances and Anthropogenic Management Actions on their Ecological Role in CO2 Fluxes Generated in Peatland Ecosystems
Resource
Mosses of the genus Sphagnum are the dominant vegetation in most pristine peatlands in temperate and high-latitude regions. They play a crucial role in carbon sequestration, being responsible for ca...
The Biophysical Climate Mitigation Potential of Boreal Peatlands During the Growing Season
Resource
Peatlands and forests cover large areas of the boreal biome and are critical for global climate regulation. They also regulate regional climate through heat and water vapour exchange with the...
Using Tree Ring Analysis to Determine Impacts of a Road on a Boreal Peatland
Resource

Webinar - Establishing Vegetation on Constructed Fens in Alberta's Oil Sands Region
Resource
Oil sands mining in Alberta has disturbed large areas of peatlands, the dominant regional ecosystem type, and no formal strategies exist to reconstruct the landscape. Peatland reclamation is...
Wetland Restoration: Can Short-Term Success Criteria Predict Long-Term Outcomes?
Resource
Worldwide wetland loss over the past 50 years has made wetland conservation a public policy priority, leading to an increase in wetland restoration programs. However, predicting long-term restoration...
