Decreased Carbon Accumulation Feedback Driven by Climate‐Induced Drying of Two Southern Boreal Bogs over Recent Centuries
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...
Environmental Spaces for Palsas and Peat Plateaus are Disappearing at a Circumpolar Scale
Resource
The anthropogenic climate change threatens northern permafrost environments. This compromises the existence of permafrost landforms, such as palsas and peat plateaus, which have been assessed to be...
Frequently Asked Questions: The Porcupine Caribou and Development in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge
Resource
An undated “frequently asked questions” document from the Yukon Government on the opening up of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (calving ground of the Porcupine caribou herd) to industrial...
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...

Revealing the Hidden Carbon in Forested Wetland Soils
Resource
Inland wetlands are critical carbon reservoirs storing 30% of global soil organic carbon (SOC) within 6% of the land surface. However, forested regions contain SOC-rich wetlands that are not included...
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...
Synopsis Report 2018/19 Arctic Caribou Contaminant Monitoring Program
Resource
This project studies contaminant levels in caribou in the Canadian Arctic to determine if these populations remain healthy (in terms of contaminant loads), whether these important resources remain...
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 Perceptions as Evidence to Improve Conservation and Environmental Management
Resource
The conservation community is increasingly focusing on the monitoring and evaluation of management, governance, ecological, and social considerations as part of a broader move toward adaptive...
Vadzaih: Cooking Caribou from Antler to Hoof
Resource
A caribou cookbook produced by the Porcupine caribou management board Related Herds: Porcupine, Barren-ground This resource and others can be found on the Northern Caribou Canada website. To find more...
Warming Response of Peatland CO2 Sink is Sensitive to Seasonality in Warming Trends

Water Level Drawdown Makes Boreal Peatland Vegetation More Responsive to Weather Conditions
Resource
Abstract Climate warming and projected increase in summer droughts puts northern peatlands under pressure by subjecting them to a combination of gradual drying and extreme weather events. The combined...
