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...
Knowing the Herd: A Summary of Boreal Caribou Monitoring in Canada Part I: Perspectives from the NBCKC Monitoring Working Group
Resource
Formed in 2018, the National Boreal Caribou Knowledge Consortium (NBCKC) is a forum for collaboration and information sharing that brings together experts and knowledge holders to support the recovery...
Multi-objective Optimization can Balance Trade-offs Among Boreal Caribou, Biodiversity, and Climate Change Objectives when Conservation Hotspots do not Overlap
Resource
The biodiversity and climate change crises have led countries—including Canada—to commit to protect more land and inland waters and to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations. Canada is also obligated...
Natural Climate Solutions
Resource
New science led by Nature United reveals nature can deliver immediate impact in Canada’s fight to tackle the climate crisis. Natural Climate Solutions are actions to protect, better manage and restore...
Natural Climate Solutions for Canada
Resource
Alongside the steep reductions needed in fossil fuel emissions, natural climate solutions (NCS) represent readily deployable options that can contribute to Canada’s goals for emission reductions. We...
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...
Protecting Boreal Caribou Habitat Can Help Conserve Biodiversity and Safeguard Large Quantities of Soil Carbon in Canada
Resource
Boreal caribou require large areas of undisturbed habitat for persistence. They are listed as threatened with the risk of extinction in Canada because of landscape changes induced by human activities...
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...
Virtual Community Engagement Guide
Resource
Hosting effective online community events and meetings in rural, remote, and Indigenous Communities can be challenging. From tools and technology to logistics and engagement, this toolkit was created...
Wetlands and Methane [Technical Report]
Resource
To reduce global greenhouse gas emissions, conservation and restoration of wetlands play a key role. This report outlines the contribution of wetlands to global methane output; differences between...
