A Map of Global Peatland Extent Created Using Machine Learning (Peat-ML)
Resource
Peatlands play an integral role in the global carbon and hydrologic cycles and make up 3% of the Earth’s total landscape. Despite their importance, there is a lack of accurate information on the...
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...
Large Stocks of Peatland Carbon and Nitrogen are Vulnerable to Permafrost Thaw
Resource
Northern peatlands have accumulated large stocks of organic carbon (C) and nitrogen (N), but their spatial distribution and vulnerability to climate warming remain uncertain. Here, we used machine...
Linear Disturbances Shift Boreal Peatland Plant Communities Toward Earlier Peak Greenness
Resource
Vast areas of boreal peatlands are impacted by linear disturbances known as seismic lines. Tree removal and ground disturbance alter vegetation communities and are expected to change ecosystem...
Modeled Production, Oxidation, and Transport Processes of Wetland Methane Emissions in Temperate, Boreal, and Arctic Regions
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...
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...

Red Deer, AB
Organization
The Red Deer River Watershed Alliance invites you to join us for our Annual General Meeting on Thursday, June 27nd. This event is being held at the River Bend Golf Course from 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm . We...
The Boreal-Arctic Wetland and Lake Dataset
Resource
Here we present the Boreal–Arctic Wetland and Lake Dataset (BAWLD), a land cover dataset based on an expert assessment, extrapolated using random forest modelling from available spatial datasets of...
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...

Resource
This presentation discusses what watershed education looks like in the Red Deer River watershed.
Video - Too Much and Too Little Water, Adaptation Strategies for Municipalities
Resource
This presentation discusses explains how climate change and land use changes impact water supply and how we can adapt.
Video - Watershed Management Planning in the Red Deer River Basin
Resource
This presentation outlines the Red Deer River Watershed Alliance's process for watershed planning.
