Permafrost Thaw Causes Large Carbon Loss in Boreal Peatlands While Changes to Peat Quality are Limited
Resource
Rapid, ongoing permafrost thaw of peatlands in the discontinuous permafrost zone is exposing a globally significant store of soil carbon (C) to microbial processes. Mineralization and release of this...
Recent Climate Change has Driven Divergent Hydrological Shifts in High-latitude Peatlands
Resource
High-latitude peatlands are changing rapidly in response to climate change, including permafrost thaw. Here, we reconstruct hydrological conditions since the seventeenth century using testate amoeba...
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...
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...
The Scale of Effect of Landscape Context Varies with the Species’ Response Variable Measured
Resource
Abstract: Context To detect an effect of landscape context on a species’ response, the landscape variables need to be measured within the appropriate distance from the species’ response, i.e. at the...
The Spatial Scale of a Species’ Response to the Landscape Context Depends on which Biological Response You Measure

"Two-Eyed Seeing": An Indigenous Framework to Transform Fisheries Research and Management
Resource
Increasingly, fisheries researchers and managers seek or are compelled to “bridge” Indigenous knowledge systems with Western scientific approaches to understanding and governing fisheries. Here, we...
Video - Caribou Conservation Project
Resource
The Denesųłiné of Cold Lake First Nations (CLFN) are applying both their Indigenous Knowledge and expertise in western science to develop and implement diverse caribou conservation strategies in...
Video - Incorporation of Wetlands into Forest Management
Resource
The Duck Mountain Provincial Forest in west-central Manitoba is a landbase with a mosaic of uplands and wetlands. The wetlands are both interspersed and interconnected with uplands. Ecosystem Based...
Warming Response of Peatland CO2 Sink is Sensitive to Seasonality in Warming Trends
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...
Weaving Indigenous Knowledge Systems and Western Sciences in Terrestrial Research, Monitoring and Management in Canada: A Protocol for a Systematic Map
Resource
Human activities and development have contributed to declines in biodiversity across the globe. Understanding and addressing biodiversity loss will require the mobilization of diverse knowledge...
Webinar - Cold Lake First Nations’ Knowledge Co-creation Process in Lake Monitoring
Resource
Cold Lake First Nation has been working with the Airshed and Watershed Stewardship Branch in the Indigenous Lake Monitoring Program since 2017. The long-term goal of this program is to support shared...
When to Monitor and When to Act: Value of Information Theory for Multiple Management Units and Limited Budgets
Resource
Abstract: The question of when to monitor and when to act is fundamental to applied ecology and notoriously difficult to answer. Value of information (VOI) theory holds great promise to help answer...
