Decision-support Tools to Assess Cumulative Effects on the Cape Bathurst, Tuktoyaktuk Peninsula, Bluenose-West, and Bluenose-East Herds of Barren-ground Caribou – Project Summary Report
Resource
This report summarizes a project whose purpose was to collaboratively develop decision-support tools that will help northern decision-makers review, explore, and learn about the cumulative effects of...
Impacts of Peatland Permafrost Thaw on Water - NWT Environmental Research Bulletin, Volume 7, Issue 34
Resource
Permafrost thaw in peatlands results in changes to vegetation and soil and can affect water resources. This project examined peatlands in the Dehcho region. It was found that peatlands with increased...
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...
Mapping and Monitoring Peatland Conditions from Global to Field Scale
Resource
Peatlands cover only 3–4% of the Earth’s surface, but they store nearly 30% of global soil carbon stock. This significant carbon store is under threat as peatlands continue to be degraded at alarming...
Movement Responses of Caribou to Human-Induced Habitat Edges Lead to Their Aggregation near Anthropogenic Features
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...
Nonlinear Spatial and Temporal Decomposition Provides Insight for Climate Change Effects on Sub‑Arctic Herbivore Populations
Resource
Global temperatures are increasing, affecting timing and availability of vegetation along with relationships between plants and their consumers. We examined the effect of population density, herd body...
